A young lady by the name of Alexis Brison posted shared details of her disturbing experience on Facebook recently stating in part:

About an hour into our dinner we were approached by a [sic] Independence police officer, a mall cop, and the restaurant manager.

We were told that we were accused of eating and not paying for CHICKEN the day before (dining and dashing). Mind you that we have proof that can show our whereabouts and it?s not even in our character to steal.

The video attached to Brison’s post quickly drew outrage and the popular restaurant chain responded promptly.

Brison posted the disturbing video above along with the following caption:

Three Applebee?s employees in Independence, MO have now been fired following the release of the footage that shows the young women being harassed by several White staffers who have been accused of racially profiling Black customers.

Brison says she and her dining companion were asked to pay for their food, leave, and not come back after being mocked and humiliated by the restaurant staff, mall security and a police officer.

The ladies can be heard yelling and crying off camera and the police officer smirks and condescendingly asks why they are so upset.

?Just because we are Black does not mean we are all criminals and I will not be treated as such,? stated Brison in her Facebook post.
