It is not clear exactly how an altercation involving a white woman’s racist tirade in a Connecticut supermarket began. But a video posted of the incident on Friday night opened with the woman’s profanity-tinged threat. All the while, Ms. Terrone’s two children looked on, seemingly frightened. By the time Ms. Terrone’s tirade came to the attention of local officials on Saturday morning, videos of the incident had been viewed and reposted by thousands of people on Facebook and Instagram. That same day, Ms. Terrone resigned from her job as a clerk for Hamden Public Schools in Connecticut, school district officials said.
