Office Depot has fired an employee at its Portage, Michigan, store after the worker refused to print a poster for a vigil honoring conservative influencer Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated this week while speaking at Utah Valley University.

The company announced the dismissal in a statement on Sept. 13, expressing regret over what it called “unacceptable and insensitive” conduct that violated company policy.
