Claims Of Racial Profiling

A black University of Massachusetts  employee is claiming he was the victim of racial profiling.  

Reginald  Andrade, who works as a case manager in the disability services office,  was stopped by police on Friday after someone called the university's  tip line and said a very agitated black man had walked into an  administration building with a heavy duffel bag.  

The building was  locked down for 45 minutes.
