A woman allegedly tried to run over two Black women multiple times outside a Dollar Tree after a confrontation with a Black employee turned into a parking lot incident. The confrontation began inside the Sandy Springs store. The woman allegedly insulted the employee and called her “lazy and black” during an argument over her shopping basket.
The situation continued after the woman left the store, with the employee and another customer trying to get away from her vehicle.
@itsybitsyweb shared the video on TikTok. The woman who filmed it says the incident happened at a Dollar Tree in Sandy Springs on September 28, 2026.
According to her account, the dispute began when the woman had a basket of items and expected the 22-year-old employee, identified as Sia, to unload them at the checkout. The customer allegedly became angry and repeatedly called Sia lazy. She also told her to get an education and suggested she apply for a job elsewhere.
Sia eventually said she was quitting and went to get her manager. The customer later left the store, but the situation did not end there.
The woman filming says she saw Sia running from the customer’s car and realized the driver was allegedly trying to hit her. She ran outside to help Sia get away from the vehicle. The woman filming says the customer then got out of her car, approached them, and pushed her. She responded by saying she would call the police.
The situation escalated again when the customer got back into her Tesla. The two women were still in the parking lot when the driver allegedly reversed and accelerated toward them multiple times.
The woman filming says they dodged the vehicle by moving around other parked cars. She says the driver made roughly three or four attempts to hit them. At one point, the vehicle struck them. Sia was left without one shoe, and her red jacket ended up on the ground.
The filmer says her phone also landed near the vehicle’s tire. Sia then hit the car’s windshield before the two women managed to get back inside the Dollar Tree.
The woman says they called police after making it back into the store, and the customer was taken into custody. She also criticized the store for not locking its doors while the incident was unfolding.
Her account describes the encounter as a warning that people should remain alert, even in places where they may not expect something like this to happen.
Internet Reacts to Georgia Dollar Tree Incident
The video also drew support for the two women and criticism of the woman accused of attacking them. One commenter connected the “lazy” accusation to a broader history of racist stereotypes, writing, “Ever since we stopped working for free, they call us lazy.” Another focused on the customer’s use of the word Black as an insult, saying, “They think saying you’re Black is an insult.”
Several viewers praised the woman who stepped in to help Sia. One commenter wrote, “I’m so glad you were there. It takes a lot for bystanders to step in! I’m proud of you for doing the right thing!” Another expressed disbelief at the behavior, writing, “Wow, they are becoming unhinged.”
Some commenters also urged the women to pursue legal and financial action. One wrote, “Sue her, file claims with her car insurance company, her home insurance, sue the dollar tree for lack of safety too. Everybody need that.” Another described the incident as “Attempted murder” and encouraged the women to pursue the case, writing, “I pray you get the best lawyer and press those charges because absolutely not! Glad you are still here.”
There is no publicly available police report, so details are not available as of this writing.
