Confrontation at T.J. Maxx: Lying 'Karen' Says Black Woman Was Stealing, Claims Race Wasn't a Factor

A viral TikTok video, shared by @CallmeNimco, captured a distressing incident on July 21 at a T.J. Maxx in Coon Rapids, Minnesota. A white woman, visibly agitated, accused a Black Muslim woman of shoplifting while on the phone with 911. She described the accused woman's outfit in detail, expressing her frustration with theft in the community. Declaring that she felt compelled to act, the caller insisted she witnessed theft, despite her claims being solely speculative.Three other Muslim women intervened, suggesting they could return to the store to clarify the matter with management. The police soon arrived, and one officer informed the accuser that the store staff found no basis for her allegations. The accused women advocated for the white woman to face consequences for her baseless claims. Commenters on social media overwhelmingly supported the Muslim women's perspectives, highlighting a perception of racially motivated accusations. (Credit: @CallmeNimco/TikTok)
