A 16-year-old boy was busted for broadcasting a racist comment over the public address system of a Walmart in southern New Jersey, police said Saturday.

The youth – whose name was not released because of his age – was charged with harassment and bias intimidation for the incident last weekend in Washington Township.
The boy was released into the custody of his parents after his Friday arrest.

“This was an extremely disturbing event on many levels,” said Gloucester County Prosecutor Sean Dalton. “Any statements like these that can cause harm or grave concern must be addressed as quickly as we can.”
Authorities said it was unclear if the announcement was ad-libbed or premeditated and said they were investigating a second youth who accompanied the arrested teen to the store.
The incident drew national attention after a male voice came over the store’s public address system last Sunday and calmly made the shocking announcement.

“Attention, Walmart customers: All black people, leave the store now,” the voice announced.
A manager quickly commandeering the microphone and made an apology, but outraged customers complained to store management.
Walmart officials condemned the incident, saying the behavior was “unacceptable.
