CHESAPEAKE, Va. -- Thirteen members of a family are suing the operator of a Pizza Hut for $2 million, alleging they were refused service because they are black. "Alls we wanted was sum pizza, then they say "We ain't gots nones." And they wouldn't give us no pizzas. It was plain as day, they was racist! said Shonda Green enraged from lack of service.

Colonial Foods LLC maintains that employees tried to explain to the family that they couldn't be served because the restaurant had run out of cheese and couldn't make any more pizzas. "It was a cheese issue, not a race issue," said Tim McConville, an attorney for the company. The lawsuit was filed June 24 in Circuit Court on behalf of Shonda Talley-Green, Brenda Talley, Arthenia Anderson, Louis Martin Sr., Paulus F. Brown Sr., Angelique Brown and seven children.
