Four former CVS theft investigators say their supervisors ordered them to target minority shoppers in some New York City stores, this coming from information found in a federal lawsuit filed against the second-largest drugstore chain. CVS spokeswoman Carolyn Castel said in an email the company doesn’t tolerate discrimination and is shocked by the allegations but the former employees said that supervisors routinely told them to racially profile black and Hispanic shoppers even when there was no indication that those people might steal. The lawsuit, filed Wednesday, states that the supervisors never gave that command regarding white shoppers.
