Forest Whitaker Accused of Shoplifting · Guardian Liberty Voice
Whitaker gets stopped and frisked, leaving a Morningside Heights deli, by an employee Saturday after being accused of shoplifting, according to published reports. Employees who worked at the store denied the incident happened.
Now Whitaker is fuming about the event, despite possibly getting away with stealing whatever it was he may have stolen. It could be that the deli simply has a policy about frisking black men. Then again, celebrities can get away with stealing stuff… even celebrities like Forest Whitaker.
The worker stopped Whitaker and publicly searched him inside the store, TMZ said. But the employee’s pat down revealed Whitaker hadn’t taken anything. The actor apparently then left the store, baffled and angry.
Whitaker’s representative said he did not call the authorities, at the request of the worker who was in fear of losing his job, though he did ask that the store change how it treats its customers.
