SOUTH FULTON, Ga. (CBS46) – An unprovoked racial assault was caught on digital camera. A person inquiring for AT&T directed a racial slur at a South Fulton household’s teenage son.
The man was going door-to-door soliciting clients on Concord Loop in South Fulton.
A 16-year-old named Montrell Godley answered by the Ring digital camera and stated he wanted to speak to his father first. But that’s when the person walked away, and stated, “Thanks for being a [racial slur].”
The man seems to make use of the derogatory time period a second time, as he walks towards the driveway.
The household is shaken and traumatized by what they noticed on digital camera.
“I was in shock. Because this is my first time ever having to deal with this. I didn’t expect that, and I was at a loss of words,” stated Montrell Godley. “This is just something that no African American should accept.”
Montrell’s dad is simply as annoyed as his son.
“That stuff is unacceptable. It’s offensive. It’s painful. It’s hurtful. And it can lead to long-lasting damaging scars,” stated Aaron Godley.
He needs motion, instantly.
“I don’t think that someone who has that type of hatred in their heart should be going into communities and to people’s homes,” stated Aaron Godley. “Somebody needs to sit down and talk to him. I even would be willing to talk to him and explain to him, the damage that you caused with the choice of words that you used.”
After CBS46 News reached out to AT&T Thursday night, an official stated that they’ve terminated the connection with the seller.
AT&T launched an announcement saying:
“This vendor’s behavior is vile and offensive and goes against everything we stand for as a company. We have zero tolerance for what happened today and the relationship with this vendor has been terminated.”
