Taco Bell Employee Allegedly Made Racist Comment to Customer

Today at the Taco Bell in Columbia Heights, MD, I experienced a deeply racist and offensive incident from one of your employees. While I was at the counter trying to pay the rest of my amount, the employee told me to “go back to Africa.” This comment was completely unprovoked, humiliating, and clearly discriminatory. I am extremely upset and do not feel safe or respected as a customer after being spoken to this way. I expect Taco Bell to take this matter very seriously, review any available cameras and witnesses, and take strong disciplinary action against this employee, up to and including termination. I also expect a clear response from your management about how this situation will be handled and what measures you will take to prevent this kind of racist behavior from happening again.
