Washington Township - Police say they have made an arrest in the case of a racial comment being made over the public-address system at a Walmart store in the state of New Jersey.

The Washington Township Police Department said on its website early on Saturday that an arrest has been made in a "bias incident" at the retail store. The posting says the police and Gloucester County Prosecutor's Office will announce the arrest at a midday news conference.

Washington Township Police declined to comment early on Saturday.

A male voice came over the Walmart public address system on Sunday evening and calmly announced: "Attention, Walmart customers: All black people, leave the store now."

The announcement provoked an immediate apology from the store manager.

Officials for Arkansas-based Wal-Mart Stores Inc said the announcement was "unacceptable".

But they openly grab the aid from western country's all the while spewing hatred about them. Read the article...
