CVS Launching An Investigation After Tammy Rivera Accuses Clerk Of Racially Profiling Her While Shopping
A rep for CVS is speaking out following an incident with reality star Tammy Rivera.
As we previously reported, Tammy shared some videos to Instagram Sunday to share what went down at her local CVS in DeKalb County, GA. In one of the clips, Tammy explained that she is a frequents shopper and knows all the employees, but the woman she encountered this time was new. Tammy claimed that the staffer followed her down every aisle and yelled at her for opening a hair accessory she intended to buy. Cops were called but she eventually left the store to avoid trespassing charges. However, Monday morning Tammy called her CVS to file a complaint. It was said that the general manager quickly called back to apologize.
A rep for CVS spoke with TMZ and said that it has a “firm non-discrimination policy” and it’s committed to ensuring that all customers are “treated with respect and are offered courteous customer service.” According to the news site, the rep added they’ve also launched an investigation.
Now despite this, Tammy makes it clear that she does NOT want the employee to get fired. Instead, she would like for the clerk to get more education and training.
