KANSAS CITY, Kan. - A KCK father said his son was asked to leave a Family Dollar store near 13th and Quindaro.

The clerk drew his attention to a sign on the door saying no children under the age of 18 without a parent were allowed inside.

Tarence Maddox said he believes his child was harassed because they live in a poor neighborhood. 

"We are being mistreated because we're from a certain demographic and we live in a certain area of the community." Maddox said.
