Julius Jones said the latest incident occurred Tuesday at the Roger Smith Hotel — a day after he hit the hotel and three employees with a $35 million discrimination lawsuit over an alleged racist stunt on Oct. 28, 2010.
In an amended complaint, Jones says painter Ramon Pagan confronted him in the hotel basement wearing a "pure white cone-shaped article on his head.”
Pagan said, "Hey, look at me. I am the Ku Klux Klan," while a hotel manager witnessed the bizarre exchange, according to court papers filed in Manhattan Federal Court.
"I was blown away," Jones, 42, told The News. "[Pagan\] laughed in my face and enjoyed what he was doing. And there was a manager right there looking at him and didn't say a word."
"It was not a painter's mask he was wearing, it was perfectly shaped like a cone," he added.
