新华报业网北京７月２１日专电美国哈佛大学一名黑人教授日前回自己家时被误认为私闯民宅并因此被捕，这名教授指控对他进行调查的一名警官种族歧视。
据美联社２１日报道，现年５８岁的亨利·路易斯·盖茨教授是哈佛大学Ｗ．Ｅ．Ｂ．杜波依斯非洲人和非洲裔美国人研究所负责人。
作为非洲裔美国人事务专家，盖茨因这番经历深感受辱，要求剑桥市警官克劳利向他道歉。盖茨22日接受美国有线电视新闻网记者采访时说，他可能就这件事起诉剑桥警方。“这不是我一个人的事，这是关于美国黑人弱势状况的事。”他说。
警官克劳利22日坚称，他在这一事件中行为并无不当，拒绝向盖茨道歉。
克劳利说，他为这件事引发全美激烈争议而沮丧，但他的确按照正确程序逮捕盖茨。“我不会道歉。”克劳利说。
警方支持者说，盖茨反应过激，才导致被捕。
