Tom Austin, a venture capitalist and managing partner of the F2 Intelligence Group, threatened to call 911 in the confrontation earlier this week. “I’m a tenant in the building — are you?” he tells the men in the video. One of the men later says: “As you can see, we’re dealing with racism here.” The The black Entrepreneurs had been renting office space in the building for a year and a half.
Austin ultimately called the building manager, who confirmed the men have a lease in the building. The fallout from his actions led to Austins company F2 Intelligence Group losing its lease in the building. Austin reportedly later said he “should have handled it differently”, and that, “Not my job to have done anything.”
