A man and woman who were kicked out of ride-share service over racist comments will not face criminal charges.
. However, the Pennsylvania couple will reportedly not face criminal charges for their actions.
The incident began when a woman made a comment about her ride-share driver, named James Bode, being white. "Are you like a white guy?" she can be heard asking in a video of the exchange. "Are you like a normal guy, like you speak English." Bode, who went viral for calling out racism, told the couple to get out of his car after the "completely inappropriate" comment.
