The waitress, after observing the man’s aggressive behavior, left to report the incident to her superiors, but the family was seen leaving the restaurant soon after.
The viral video has sparked widespread concern about the safety of restaurant staff and their protection from abusive customers.
According to posts on X, the incident was reported to the local police, and a complaint was filed. However, there has been criticism over the lack of significant action taken against the man.
One X user shared their frustration, stating, “I filed a complaint against the officers, and their supervisor responded, saying ‘they’re humans and made a mistake.”
The incident has ignited outrage on social media, with many condemning the man’s actions. While some are curious about what might have triggered the outburst, others argue that nothing could justify such a violent and unacceptable act toward the waitress.
One such X user wrote, “What on earth do you think justifies this?” Another one penned, “Imagine the hell his wife and kid deal with behind closed doors.”
