They both alleged in their grievances that they had discovered photos of themselves edited to depict their heads decapitated from their bodies. They said that the photos had been placed in public view of the living quarters of the fire station. Acting Fire Chief Patrick Egloff denied the grievances, saying that that there was no evidence of harassment or “anti-union activity” as alleged in the complaints.

Celtics ban fan for 2 years; accused of racist comment BOSTON (AP) — The Boston Celtics have banned a fan from its games for two years for being verbally abusive toward the Warriors during their only visit to Boston this season. The team says it didn’t enforce a lifetime ban because its investigation couldn’t prove that the fan used a racial slur toward Golden State forward DeMarcus Cousins. According to a Yahoo! report, Cousins said the fan “muttered” a racial slur at him on Jan. 26. The Celtics say the fan, who is a minor, was ejected from the game immediately after they received the complaint. The team says it reviewed videotape and spoke with fans, police and security in the area and concluded the fan was verbally abu- sive toward the Golden State bench. The investigation found that “none of the inter- Golden State Warriors center DeMarcus viewed parties were able to verify the use of racially Cousins, right, collides with Dallas Mavericks Boston Celtics' Kyrie Irving (11) looks to pass behind Indiana Pacers' Darren offensive language, and video evidence proved forward Dwight Powell in the second half of Collison during the second quarter of an NBA basketball game Friday, March inconclusive.” an NBA basketball game Saturday, March 23, 29, 2019, in Boston.
