Accusing of theft

My husband and I were at Builders warehouse Bedworthpark. He was taking his time browsing through everything and my back and legs started to get painful so i went down to just get a rest and came up and asked my husband to carry my handbag. We went and purchased the items, and when we walked out the security asked to search my handbag. I said it's fine but bring a women. One of the securities dressed in normal clothes accused me *****ing, and i asked him what did i put in my bag, he couldn't say. He had a big attitude accusing me of something i didn't do. The one security apologized, but the one accusing me of *****ing and didn't find anything in my handbag couldn't apologize. And i asked him is it because i am white, he said yes with an attitude. I hope that security got in big trouble.
