Racist tirade over parking spot in Abbotsford caught on video
Sun, Oct 23: Police are investigating after a video of a racist and slur-ridden altercation over a parking spot in Abbotsford was posted online – Oct 23, 2016

Almost a year after appearing in a racially-charged video and being criminally charged, a man has pleaded guilty to assault.

Karry Corbett was captured on camera by an Abbotsford lawyer last October after getting into an argument with a parking enforcement officer.

Lawyer Ravi Duhra said he began filming when he became concerned about Cobertt’s behaviour towards the officer, but that’s when Cobertt’s attention turned to Duhra.

Corbett pleaded guilty to one count of assault on Friday and will make his next court appearance on October for sentencing.

It’s expected the other charges of uttering threats, causing a disturbance, and another count of assault, will be dropped.
