On January 7, 2011, in Kostroma, on Shagova Street, two Nazi skinheads beat up an underage rapper Nikolai B. A minor, dressed in the style of "hip-hop" and listening to rap music through the player, was stopped by two young people. The assailants told him stories that he "listens to the music of blacks, being a Russian guy." Convinced that the teenager considers himself a "rapper", the young people beat him.
