Woman Sues Apple For $350 Million Over Wellington Store Discrimination Claim

WELLINGTON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2026 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — A Palm Beach County woman is suing Apple for $350 million. She claims staff at the Apple Store in The Mall at Wellington Green treated her like a thief because she is Black, then took her iPhone apart and handed it back broken. Curtashia Oliver, who is representing herself, says she went to the store with her husband on Sept. 25 for a confirmed appointment. She had forgotten the passcode to her iPhone 14 Plus and just wanted it erased. According to the complaint, the employee helping her told a coworker, “She’s Black, she probably stole it, I don’t know if I should help her erase it.” Oliver says she heard it. The suit also claims staff joked about her older phone and kept asking whether it was really hers. Oliver alleges employees took the phone to a back room and kept her at the store for hours past closing. When it came back, the suit says, it had been completely disassembled, its internal retention screws were removed, and it looked like it had been dropped. The phone now won’t get past recovery mode, cutting her off from her photos,

Florida citrus growers wade through worst flooding industry has seen

Treasure Coast citrus growers are wading through what they described as the worst flooding event the local industry has ever seen. After record-breaking rainfall , western Indian River County was underwater for three to four days and western St. Lucie County was for five to six days, said Riverfront Packing Co. CEO Dan Richey. After 46 years in the industry, this was the most devastating flooding he has seen — "by far." "For two weeks it shut us down, right at the beginning of the season, when things were looking good," Richey told TCPalm. "Bottom line is we'll lose some fruit. It's definitely delaying harvest and we're not sure what kind of tree damage we'll have just yet." Florida flooding threatens to hurt citrus trees Lingering floodwaters saturate the soil, which can cause citrus roots to rot and harmful microorganisms to grow, according to the University of Florida fact sheet . Damage to trees from flooding is likely if citrus root systems are in saturated soil for three or more days. "We had flooded groves for five to six days," Richey said. "I was out in the grove yesterday, and I was walking. The mosquitoes nearly carried me away." Doug
