A man and woman who were kicked out of ride-share service over racist comments will not face criminal charges.

. However, the Pennsylvania couple will reportedly not face criminal charges for their actions.

The incident began when a woman made a comment about her ride-share driver, named James Bode, being white. "Are you like a white guy?" she can be heard asking in a video of the exchange. "Are you like a normal guy, like you speak English." Bode, who went viral for calling out racism, told the couple to get out of his car after the "completely inappropriate" comment.

The male passenger then became angry, calling Bode an "a******," and saying he should "punch him in the face."The couple's actions were under investigation. However, no criminal charges will be issued against the couple, according to Lehigh County District Attorney Jim Martin.MORE HEADLINES:
