SAN JOSE, California -- When customers visit the Shell gas station at Bernal Road in South San Jose, they expect a full tank of gas. On Thursday, San Jose resident Grecya Moran also got an earful of racial remarks.

She told ABC7 News, she was initially greeted in Spanish by one employee, while another stood nearby. The short conversation in Spanish was soon interrupted by the second employee. She demanded the two speak English.

"I even went up to her and I apologized," Moran said. "I said, 'Excuse me, I'm sorry. All she was saying is, she was greeting me in Spanish. How my day's going.' And she said, 'I don't care, you talk in English because this is America.'"

Moran said the woman grew even more hostile.

"She started saying something about, 'Trump needs to hurry up and build the wall.' That's when I was like, oh my God, she's being serious," Moran said. "I just got my phone, started videotaping her."

The minutes-long confrontation was caught on camera. The interaction happened with Moran's phone in one hand, and her 18-month-old son in her other arm.
