DILLON \u2014 The Dillon Police Department is asking for community help in identifying a man who wore a Ku Klux Klan mask inside the Dillon City Market on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Pictures of a man wearing a Klan-style pointed hood began to flood across social media Thursday afternoon after he wore the hood into the grocery store and allegedly refused to leave when asked by store employees. A store employee also called the police.<\/p>\n

Dillon Police Chief Mark Heminghous said officers were dispatched on a report of trespassing at 12:41 p.m. but that the man had left the area just before they arrived at 12:45 p.m. The department is working to identify the man using surveillance footage to determine his vehicle.<\/p>\n

\u201cRight now, they\u2019re trying to identify him, contact him and take it from there,\u201d said Kerstin Anderson, Dillon\u2019s director of communications. \u201cObviously, we take this kind of action very seriously.\u201d<\/p>\n
