SCENARIO:


Customer: Yes, I want to cancel my account. I don't want to do business with you any longer.

The Bank: Why?

Customer: You're giving credit to illegal immigrants and I don't think it's right. I'm taking my business elsewhere.

The Bank: Well, Mr. Customer, we don't want to see you do that, but we can't stop you.. I'll help you close the account. What is your account number?

Customer: (gives account number)

The Bank: For security purposes and for your protection, can you please give me the last four digits of your social security number?

Customer: No?

 

The Bank: Mr. Customer, I need to verify your information, but in order to help you, I'll need verification of who you are.

Customer: Why should I give you my social security number? The reason I'm closing my account is that your bank is issuing credit cards to illegal immigrants who don't have social security numbers. You are targeting that audience and want their business. Let's say I'm an illegal immigrant and you've given me a credit card. I have a question about it and call for assistance. You wouldn't be asking me for a Social Security number, would you?

The Bank: No sir, I wouldn't.

Customer: Why not?

The Bank: Because you would have pressed '2' to speak in Spanish. We don't ask for that information when calling in on the Spanish line.

North Carolina Amber Alert

SIRAJ MUNIR DAVENPORT
DOB: Aug 23, 2004
Missing Date: May 18, 2008
Age Now: 3
Missing City: SMITHFIELD
The FBI is now involved in the search for a 3-year-old Johnston County boy who's been missing since Sunday morning.


The Smithfield Police Department is searching for Siraj Unir Davenport of Four Oaks. His mother says he answers to Raji.


Davenport is a 3-year-old Asian male, approximately 3 feet, 0 inches tall, weighing 35 pounds. He has dark brown hair and brown eyes.


Story continues belowAdvertisementHe was last seen wearing light blue T-shirt with a yellow truck on the front, dark blue sweat pants and Addidas tennis shoes.


Detectives tell Eyewitness News that the boy was at the Brightleaf Flea Market with his mother around 10 a.m., when she says she turned to load her car with groceries and turned back around to find the boy gone.


Investigators say the mother and other customers searched for two hours on their own before calling police around noon.


Since then, Smithfield Police, Johnston County Sheriff's officials, search and rescue teams and fire officials have been scouring the area inside and outside the flea market. They have also launched several boats off a nearby ramp looking for clues along the Neuse River. Monday morning, federal agents entered the search for the child.


Authorities say they closed down the market early, clearing out everyone and searching each car as it left the parking lot for clues.


As for leads, police say there are few --investigators say Raji may have been abducted, but they have no information on any estranged family member or anyone else who would want to harm the boy.


Smithfield Police Chief Steve Gillikin said it may too early to consider the case a possible abduction. The search was called off Sunday evening because of bad weather.


Meanwhile his mother is working with police. The boys father is overseas. Officials say he's on his way back to Johnston County now.


If you have any information regarding this abduction, contact the Smithfield Police Department at (919) 934-2121, or call 911 or Highway Patrol.

Missing From: Marshall, Minnesota

Law enforcement officers are searching for a 19-year-old Marshall man whose car was found abandoned in a ditch northwest of Taunton.


The Lyon County Sheriff's Office says Brandon Swanson's Chevrolet Lumina was found shortly after noon Wednesday at the Lyon-Lincoln county line in southwestern Minnesota.


Swanson's parents called the sheriff about 6:30 a.m. Wednesday to say they had gotten a cell phone call from their son, who said he had gone into a ditch.


He told them he went off the road between Marshall and Lynd, but his car wasn't there. The cell call was traced to a tower near Minneota, and the car was found soon after.


A search of the area Wednesday by officers, a police dog and a State Patrol airplane turned up nothing. Taunton is about 15 miles northwest of Marshall.


If you have information on Brandon Swanson's whereabouts, call the sheriff's office at 507-537-7666.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO ALL FRIENDS!
Working America and the AFL-CIO want to know

About the unique issues that women face in the workplace.
Dear Friend,

What do you do if you need to take time off work to care for a sick child or parent?
Does having children hurt your career?
Unequal pay. Maternity leave. Spiraling health care costs. Family and children plus a full-time career.
Working people face these issues every day. But all too often, women especially don’t have the resources or support to help meet these challenges.
Working America and the AFL-CIO are conducting a nationwide survey on what it's like to be a working woman. If you’re a working woman, your opinion matters greatly. Please take a moment to complete the Ask a Working Woman survey and share your thoughts and experiences.
The results of this survey have never been more important. Women’s rights and labor organizations will use the results to advocate for women across the country over the next two years. Your voice matters. We want to hear from you (or the women in your life), Robin.
It's short, easy (we promise) and will serve as an invaluable tool for moving working women's issues into the national dialogue. Click here now to take the survey.
And if you’re not a working woman, forward this e-mail to your sister, your mother, your co-workers and your friends to make sure their voices are heard.
Thanks for helping lead the way for women in the workplace. Together, we can make lasting change.

In support of working women everywhere,

Working America, AFL-CIO

A young mother is killed, and two children present during the homicide are now missing.

Missing From: Cincinnati, OHIO

Police are searching for two children who they believe went missing after witnessing the shooting, including 9-year-old Damerco Jones and Armisha Williams, 4, Police have been unable to contact their parents.

Police identified the victim as Jackie Evans, 25. Officers found her shot in the chest near President and Williamsburg Drive just before 10:00 p.m. Friday. Investigators believe Evans was shot during fight in a large group of people.


The missing children are identified as Armisha Williams, age four, and Damerco Jones, age nine. Police say that the children were taken by an unidentified female who is not the mother or the guardian of the children.


Officers believe the shooter is a woman. So far, adult witnesses are not cooperating with police.


Moments after watching a woman shoot his mother, a six-year-old boy laid on her blood-covered body.


His four-year-old sister ran after him to do the same.


Neighbors looked on, shocked. The children waited, hoping their mom would wake up.


As their small bodies covered her, they cried, still unaware this violent scene would be the last moment they’d share with their mother.


Jackie Denise Evans, 25, died Friday night after being shot in the chest while walking home with her four children.


That is the grisly account police gave Saturday as they struggled to piece together what happened outside the Fay Apartments complex in North Fairmount.


Investigative work has been hampered by uncooperative witnesses, creating few leads in this heartbreaking case, said Cincinnati Police Sgt. Gary Conner.


“There were a number of people who were standing outside. Not a single person came forward to tell us anything,” Conner said. “The best information we were able to get came from a six-year-old boy who had just lost his mother. He was the only one with the courage and guts to talk to the police.


The children – believed to be 6, 4, 3 and eight months – have been placed with their maternal grandmother, police said.


According to police, Evans was shot about 9 p.m. in the 2500 block of Williamsburg Drive, near President Drive.


Evans was taken to University Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.


“She was a block from home. Another 10 minutes, and she could still be alive,” Conner said, running through the what-ifs of this tragedy. “If she’d walked on the other side of the street, maybe she would have survived. …Maybe none of this would have happened.


Police said on Friday there may have been a fight before the shooting. They’re still trying to figure out what could have sparked the deadly argument.


Family described Evans as non-confrontational. “The only thing she would ever fight over is her kids,” they told police, according to Conner.


Detectives spent most of Saturday canvassing the area and going door-to-door, looking for clues to point them to the killer.


They were met with dead-end after dead-end, people who refused to tell them what they witnessed.


“Someone saw this. They had to,” Conner said about the large group that was outside when Evans was shot. “This happened over something as simple as a verbal altercation of some sort. For that, a woman lost her life and four children are without a mother. It’s just senseless.


Meanwhile, police were searching for two children who they believe went missing after witnessing the shooting.
