Indian staff faces racial slur in US
Posted June 9th, 2017, 11:13 AM IST

A woman at a US department store allegedly made a racist rant against an Indian employee and a Latino family while in a queue, saying “you got an Indian waiting on an Indian”. The incident took place at the Sears store in New Brunswick, New Jersey, and a city man videotaped the woman making bigoted comments.
Simoni Lovano, 27, said he recorded the video at the department store. In the video, a woman can be heard making bigoted comments against an Indian employee and a Latino family, who she assumes are of Indian descent, Lovano was quoted as saying by NJ.com.
“Send them back to their own (country) country,” the woman can be heard saying in the video. The woman was upset because the family was using coupons, which made the wait in the checkout line longer.
