A South Carolina woman was charged after she confronted an 11-year-old Black girl she falsely accused of stealing from her mailbox.
On May 11, Skhylur Davis and three other children went to her grandmother’s mailbox in Aiken, South Carolina, to retrieve the mail, reported The Augusta Chronicle.
While she was standing outside holding the items, Elizabeth Shirey, her grandmother’s neighbor, “approached her in an aggressive manner and demanded her mail back,” stated an Aiken Public Safety incident report.
“Mrs. Shirey happens to see this young child by her mailbox and proceeds to come out of her home, yell at this 11-year-old girl.
Mrs. Shirey runs aggressively towards this 11-year-old child accusing her of committing a felony, stealing her mail,” Bamberg continued.
