Cinnabon franchise immediately fires Wisconsin worker who went viral for racist rant | Fortune
A Cinnabon worker in Wisconsin has been fired after a racist outburst directed at two customers went viral, the Georgia-based cinnamon roll chain said.
Cinnabon posted a statement on social media that the worker, who it did not identify, was “immediately terminated” by the franchise owner over a “disturbing video” of the incident.
“Their actions and statements are completely unacceptable and in no way reflect the values of Cinnabon, our franchisees, or the welcoming environment we expect for every guest and team member,” the company added in a follow-up statement to The Associated Press on Sunday.
The video was posted on TikTok and showed a white, female employee cursing at and taunting the customers from behind the counter as one of them recorded the encounter. At one point she is seen on video uttering a racial slur and saying, “I am racist and I’ll say it to the whole entire world. Don’t be disrespectful.”
The employee also is also recorded giving an obscene hand gesture at customers and exchanging expletives with one of the persons at the store.
The TikTok user who posted video said the incident happened while she and her husband were taking a break from shopping Friday at a mall in Ashwaubenon, a suburb of Green Bay.
The customer said she ordered a caramel pecan cinnamon roll and had asked the worker to add more caramel as it didn’t appear to have enough.
She said she began recording after the worker snapped at her and derided her hijab.
An online fundraising campaign to support the customers described them as a “black Somali Muslim couple” that’s been “traumatized” by the incident.
A competing campaign to purportedly benefit the fired worker, meanwhile, has raised tens of thousands of dollars. That effort appears on the same Christian crowdfunding platform where hundreds of thousands of dollars were raised for a Minnesota woman who admitted to using a racist slur against a Black child at a playground earlier this year.
PLEASANT PRAIRIE, Wis. – A workplace argument leads to a shooting. It happened nearly three decades ago. Police say the man who pulled the trigger has been on the run ever since.
Search for Geraldo Gomez
What we know:
“We’ve spent tireless days on this, and it’s gone through a lot of different hands in our time,” the U.S. Marshal on the case said.
In March 1998, investigators say Geraldo Gomez was like a ticking time bomb when he confronted a co-worker on the job.

“They proceed to argue,” the marshal said. “They go back to work. Everything seems to be OK.”
The backstory:
Gomez was 27 years old at the time when investigators said he marched into his boss’s office and quit. When he walked out the door and straight into the parking lot, his co-worker walked out behind him.
“He followed him out there to ensure that nothing was going to happen to his vehicle,” the investigator said.
A criminal complaint says that’s when Gomez ambushed the man and fired four shots at him.
What they’re saying:
“The victim was actually struck in the hand and the upper torso during that incident,” the marshal explained.
The victim was rushed to the hospital and survived, but U.S. Marshals say Gomez went on the run. He was charged in the case. The now 55-year-old has avoided the law for nearly three decades. Over the years, authorities have tried tracking leads from Waukegan, Illinois to Mexico.

“There are no geographical boundaries for us,” the marshal said. “We will find you and justice will be served.”
Gomez is described as being 5’4″ tall and weighing 140 pounds.
