Jewelry chain Shane Co. apologizes for not accepting US service member’s Puerto Rico driver’s license as valid US ID
US service member Abdiel Gonzalez said an employee at a Shane Co. store in Roseville, California, didn’t accept his Puerto Rican driver’s license when he tried to buy an engagement ring for his soon-to-be wife.
When the employee didn’t accept his license at the jewelry chain last October, Gonzalez says he showed his military ID to back up the fact that as Puerto Rican, he is a US citizen. But the employee, Gonzalez said, didn’t accept either ID as valid.
Shane Co. asked for a driver’s license because Gonzalez wanted to finance the ring using a Shane Co.
