New Jersey Teenager Arrested After Racially Charged Walmart Intercom Statement

After making a racially offensive comment on a Walmart intercom last week in Turnersville, N.J., a 16-year-old boy was arrested and later released to his parents, with whom he will remain until his first court appearance.

The Associated Press has confirmed that the authorities took the teen into custody after he allegedly gained access to the Walmart public-address system and made an inappropriate remark toward black customers in the store.

"Attention, Walmart customers: All black people, leave the store now," the boy said over the intercom.

The name of the minor in question has not been released due to his age. There is no word on what the sentence will be for the troubled teen. He was charged with bias, intimidation, and harassment.

The police are still investigating whether the boy had an accomplice.

"This was an extremely disturbing event on many levels. Any statements like these that can cause harm or grave concern must be addressed as quickly as we can," Gloucester County Prosecutor Sean Dalton told the New York Daily News.

Walmart said they are working toward reducing public access to intercoms in stores.
