LINK Two Black men say they were handcuffed while returning a broken TV to Walmart. Now they're suing.

Lawyers for Terence Richardson and Dennis Stewart said their clients were detained at a Walmart store in Conroe, a Houston suburb, in September of 2020 despite showing employees a receipt for the TV.
