Tyrese Gibson has filed a lawsuit against Home Depot.
The “Fast and Furious” star and two other plaintiffs — Eric Mora and Manuel Hernandez — are seeking over $1 million USD in damages, alleging they “experienced outrageous discriminatory mistreatment and consumer racial profiling” while visiting the West Hills, California store on February 11, People reported.
The amount in damages reportedly reflects how much Gibson has spent at the store over the years.
He’s also asking for punitive damages and “a declaratory judgment declaring that” Home Depot’s actions violated California’s Unruh Civil Rights Act.
Despite Gibson telling the cashier that he was giving permission for Mora and Hernandez — who “regularly provide construction services” to him — to use his credit card, the cashier allegedly refused, even after Gibson returned to the store.
“The cashier gave no reasonable explanation other than repeating ‘store policy’ and demanded to see a form of identification,” the lawsuit stated.
“The manager refused to speak with Gibson in person. It was only after significant heated discussion with the cashier that Gibson was finally able to complete the transaction.”
The lawsuit alleged the store’s employees “purposely interfered with and refused to process the transaction based on their groundless suspicion of Gibson, Mora and Hernandez arising from their skin color, and in the case of Mora and Hernandez, their national origin.”
