The store manager, who is alleged to be a white woman named Holly Hylton, called the police on the two gentlemen for no apparent reason.

The Philadelphia police arrived, charged the men with “trespassing”, and took them out of the store in handcuffs. This story has now generated national attention, which has led to a boycott of the Starbucks chains altogether. The CEO issued a written apology for the incident, but there has been no mention of the company termination the suspected white supremacist store manager.

The alleged store manager Holly Hylton is in the process of deleting all of her social media profiles.
