The hotel staffers Mark Curry accused of racial profiling have been suspended from their jobs … TMZ has learned.
As we reported, Mark claimed he was accosted by two employees over the weekend at The Mining Exchange hotel in downtown Colorado Springs … and he posted video showing two staffers following him around.
Mark claims he left his room to go down to the lobby for some coffee when he was approached and asked if he was a hotel guest … and in his video, he wonders out loud why other guests in the lobby aren’t being asked the same questions.
A rep for The Mining Exchange tells TMZ … “Employees involved in this matter have been suspended, pending further investigation.”
