Got fired for no reason (according to my boss)

This happened last Thursday. I worked as an inventory analyst at a major logistics company in NJ. After New Years they implemented a new attendance policy and supposedly wiped our attendance records clean. On Tuesday and Wednesday of that week I used sick time for the flu, and when I came in Thursday I was informed of my termination by my boss’s boss (“Tim”) due to “an incident” the week prior. I asked what the incident was and he told me to leave. When I asked again he called security because I was being “aggressive”. So I left. I hated that job and was planning to quit as soon as I found a new one but I wasn’t anticipating being fired. I’d been written up once a few months prior due to a mistake I made, but I hadn’t made any mistakes after that. My partner works with my boss’s…

I’d been written up once a few months prior due to a mistake I made, but I hadn’t made any mistakes after that.

My partner works with my boss’s (“Sally”) wife, and she told him that Sally said that Tim had no real reason to fire me. Apparently he just didn’t like me and was looking for a reason to fire me. But he also mentioned that I deleted an item from the system that was actually in the building. I knew exactly what that was about, and I had sent an email about it stating that I couldn’t find it anywhere. He was CC’d on it, but no one responded to the email. I’m not sure where to go from here.
