An African-American shoplifter was caught on camera spewing racist hate in Shanghai.

As reported by Asian Dawn, footage of the thief surfaced on Chinese social media platform Weibo.

The unidentified man was reportedly caught stealing a box of bandaids from a Shanghai convenience store on 13 September.

When confronted by the cashier, the man tells her, “Next time, mind your business. You need to mind your business.”

In the video, the cashier is heard responding “you are swearing a lot.”

“That’s right, I’m swearing a lot because I’m fucking American and you’re Chinese!” The shoplifter says.

Another employee is heard stating “this is a civilized country!”

“No, it’s not,” the thief says. “Because kids get chopped up here, people eat animals here, people do all kinds of things here.”

“Why are you still here then?” The employee asks.

“Why are you still here!?” The American replies. “Why are Chinese people still in America, bro. You wanna be real? Why are Chinese people still in America?”

Chinese officials are reportedly investigating the situation.
