The Los Angeles Police Department is investigating what it's calling a hate incident involving a white woman who yelled racist threats about lynching black people on Tuesday at a CVS. A now-viral video thats been circulating online shows the woman screaming I hate niggers as she walks out of a CVS in the Eagle Rock neighborhood of Los Angeles.
A customer followed her out of the store while filming the woman; she continued to shout, Fuck you, niggers. I hate niggers. I would kill a nigger, but the law says I cant kill the niggers. If the law didnt say that I couldnt kill the niggers, theyd all be dead. Renée Saldaña, a 38-year-old LA native who lives in Highland Park said I couldnt hear anyone else. I didnt hear a confrontation. I could only hear one voice traveling through the CVS yelling really hateful, violent things. Everyone was confused; no one knew what was happening. Saldaña said the woman then got into her car, tore out of the parking lot, screeching tires, and drove the wrong way down the street. It was scary, she added.
According to Saldaña, none of the CVS employees asked the woman to leave the store, and no one did anything to diffuse the situation in the aftermath. When reached by phone, staffers at the CVS where the incident occurred had no comment. The CVS corporate office referred questions to the local store.
Saldaña said that she called the LAPD to file a report on the incident on Tuesday and left a message with her contact information, saying she has footage of what happened, but she had yet to hear back from the police. An LAPD spokesperson said a report was completed on Wednesday, one day after the incident took place. They described the investigation as ongoing.
