Eitzen Mayor Jeffrey Adamson challenged those claims, saying there was never any aggressive behavior or racial slurs and that none of the employees were armed. He hypothesized that the team mistook a large fire department radio in a holster for a firearm.
“The City of Eitzen in no way supports racism or violence,” Adamson wrote in a statement. “We are shocked by the accusations made in news reports released today, and saddened to hear our city is being slandered.”
