A woman who shouted at a group of three Somali-Americans to “go home” and “we’re gonna kill every one of ya” in the parking lot of a Fargo, North Dakota Walmart has been fired from her job, the Grand Forks Herald reported.
The video was recorded by one of the three women, who are Somali-American residents of Fargo.
Amber Elizabeth Hensley was notified on Wednesday that she would no longer be employed by an accounting firm in Fargo.
After a video of the incident went viral on Facebook, Hensley apologized for her actions.
“It was not a Christian like thing to do AT ALL and wish I could take it back, but I lost my cool and I can’t. I am terribly sorry,” Hensley wrote in her post. “I just wish that the whole video could be shown. And the things that were stated before she starts taping. She had parked way too close to my car and I couldn’t get in, when I asked her to move she refused, I asked her again and she swore at me calling me a fat b—-.”
Sarah Hassan, 21, told the Herald that she posted the video to show people that incidents like this happens to her “every day.”
The Herald reported the Hassan was with her sister and their friend at Walmart before going to a movie when they parked next to the woman. All three are formerly from Somalia, which is in the midst of a civil war.
