[Townhall] A Macy's employee in Michigan was knocked to the ground and punched multiple times by a black man. The attacker's brother, a rapper, told the New York Post that his brother assaulted the employee because he used a racial slur. After investigating the incident, Macy's says the attack on one of their employees was "unprovoked.""We are deeply saddened about the incident that took place on Monday at Macy’s Genesee Valley as the safety of Macy’s customers and colleagues is our top priority," the company said. "Violence in the workplace of any kind is unacceptable. All the materials from the evening have been reviewed and it is clear that the attack was unprovoked. We are working closely with local authorities on this investigation, and will defer any further comments about the case to them per policy."
The video filmed by the brother circulating on Twitter does not show the white employee using the "n-word," but the black assailant can be heard calling the white employee the "n-word" several times.
