William Welch was arrested in Ponca City, Oklahoma this week after firing off a racial attack against a black employee at a Casey’s General Store after the employee told him he couldn’t use a refill cup due to the COVID-19 pandemic, according to KFOR News 4.
“I looked at my cashier because I saw the cup sitting there. I said remember we can’t have refill mugs because of COVID-19,” said the employee, Stacy Orange. “By then, he’s already telling me to F off.”
On a 911 call to the Ponca City Police, Orange said, “There’s a guy in here calling me n***** and stuff. He’s calling me c***, n*****, b****, and flipping me off. His last comment was ‘you should hang just like the rest of the n******.’”
According to Ponca City Police Detective Kevin Jeffries, “We charged him with outraging public decency because it was in the public and we had witnesses.”
