North Carolina Woman Filmed in Racist Rant Has Gone Missing Police Say

A woman who was recorded threatening her black neighbors while they waited for AAA has gone missing. 

The Charlotte-Mecklenburg police department says they've been attempting to locate Susan Westwood, 51, but have not yet been able to locate her. Four criminal summons were issued for Westwood following a video that went viral earlier this week in which she could be seen verbally harassing two residents as they stood outside their apartment complex. 

The criminal summons include two counts of communicating threats and two counts of simple assault. 

Westwood went viral earlier this week after video showed the woman walking toward two sisters and saying things like, "Hi, how are you? I'm hot, I'm beautiful. I'm 51, and what are we going to talk about tonight? Being hot? Being beautiful? Being white? ... This is Myers Park, South Park, B****. Why are you up in here hanging out?"

One of the sisters told Westwood she called police because she felt threatened. The woman responded saying, "Do I need to bring my concealed weapons too? This is North Carolina by the way." 

In the video posted to Facebook on Oct. 19, Westwood can be heard continuously asking the two black women whether they were residents of the apartment complex. "Do you live here? Why do we feel that we need to be here like hanging out? Let's call 911. I want to make sure there's nothing going on here."

Westwood also repeatedly bragged about her six-figure job, saying "I'm white and I make $125,000 a year and I want to make sure that you're all up in here." When the sisters asks Westwood to leave them alone, she curses at them. 

Just days after the footage went viral, Westwood's employer, Spectrum Enterprises, fired her. 

"The incident recorded in Charlotte is a blatant violation of Charter's code of conduct and clearly disregards the company's commitment to inclusion and respectful behavior," the company said in a statement. "As such, Ms. Westwood's employment with the company has been terminated, effective immediately."
