"The two men entered the Starbucks on Thursday and asked to use to the bathroom. An employee told them it was only for paying customers. When they then sat in the store without ordering anything, the manager called police, and the men were arrested for trespassing. No charges were filed.
"Johnson met with the two men on Monday and apologized for how they were treated, a company spokesperson said.
"The company says the manager who called the police is no longer working at that store. Starbucks would not comment on other reports that she has left the company by mutual agreement.
"Separately, a Facebook video taken in January at a Starbucks in California shows a black customer saying that he was not allowed to use the bathroom when a white customer was."
I feel like I'm missing some unwritten detail here about the altercation with the manager, if there was one.
*Based on how other Starbucks I've been to are managed, it is not unusual for managers to ask non-paying customers to leave and not take up seats regardless of race.
