Michigan authorities have charged an 18-year-old black man for the “unprovoked,” caught-on-video assault of a white Macy’s manager, officials said. “This was an unprovoked attack on a Macy’s employee,” said Genesee County Prosecutor David Leyton in a statement. “We don’t believe any racial slur was made by the store manager,” Leyton said. While the manager is on the ground, Palmer pummels him, the footage shows, according to authorities. In the cellphone footage that went viral, the Macy’s staffer is shown wearing a mask and speaking on a cellphone when a black man punches him from behind and he drops to the floor.
