A man is suing a Michigan bank for racial discrimination after he says the staff refused to deposit settlement checks from another racial discrimination case and called police on him.

"Something else was afoot here," the man's attorney, Deborah Gordon, told CNN affiliate WXYZ. "And in my opinion there's only one thing: banking while black"
Sauntore Thomas, a 44-year-old African-American man, went to a TCF Bank branch Tuesday to open a savings account and deposit checks from the settlement in a recent racial discrimination case against his former employer, his complaint says. He already had a checking account at the bank.
A bank employee "immediately appeared suspicious," the complaint said.
"How did you get this money?" the employee asked, according to the complaint.
She refused to deposit the checks into Thomas' account and called the police to report that Thomas was attempting to deposit fraudulent checks, the complaint said.
"Ten minutes later, Livonia Police walk in. And they said 'Hey sir can we talk to you?' And I was shocked, I was like 'who, me?'" Thomas told WXYZ.
Four police officers arrived at the bank and questioned Thomas, and his attorney over the phone, about the checks.
TCF Bank filed a police report for check fraud against Thomas, the complaint said.
He left that bank and went to another, where he successfully deposited his checks and where they cleared the next morning, the complaint said.
"We apologize for the experience Mr. Thomas had at our banking center," TCF Bank said in a statement to CNN. "Local police should not have been involved. We strongly condemn racism and discrimination of any kind. We take extra precautions involving large deposits and requests for cash and in this case, we were unable to validate the checks presented by Mr. Thomas and regret we could not meet his needs."

She refused to deposit the checks into Thomas' account and called the police to report that Thomas was attempting to deposit fraudulent checks, the complaint said.

She absolutely have no rights nor responsibilities to personally call the police for this matter.

She should have asked the person to wait while she sought assistance from a manager of the bank to review and resolve any issues -- as this person has an existing account at the bank.

You fellas heard about the black goldsmith that was smuggling stolen gold out of the Royal Canadian Mint by hiding it in his anus to get pass the armed guards.  He was caught when a clerk at a bank notice he was depositing thousand dollar cheques into a savings account and noticed that he worked for the Royal Canadian Mint. The bank clerk informed the police and he was caught.

His job at the Royal Canadian Mint was to take gold samples from melted gold and test the purity of these samples.  Instead of putting the gold samples back into the melted gold he instead hid it in his anus to get pass the armed guards. Then he took the gold to a coin shop in Ottawa who would buy it from him and give him cheques which he would take across the street and cash these thousand dollars cheques at a Royal Bank.  This is when the black clerk noticed after he had cashed them several times.

The people at the coin shop had real shitty jobs.

Why did the speaker refused to review the cameras if the allegation  - looking at these  pictures it will be consider a sexual assault in North America. The speaker should be held responsible.  

those people who condemn the ministers for crying rape, would not be quite if it was a family members of them.
