It seems Tom’s Hardware picked up this story and does a nice job of collecting all the facts.  They completely avoid the racial angle, though.  Bluntly, the farm was owned by a black family and the neighborhood is lower income and minority.

For non-techies, Tom’s Hardware used to be (still is?) the place to go for deep info on technology, usually consumer products and components for consumer products.  So it’s a bit funny to go to Tom’s Hardware for this sort of news.
