Fights at fast food joints are becoming a disturbing trend, especially between employees and customers. A recently shared video captures a brutal fight between a male employee and a customer. The footage, which has garnered more than 800,000 views on social media platform X since it was posted on Sunday, has ignited a firestorm of reactions online.
The clip vividly documents a violent altercation that resulted in an employee losing a lot of hair. The incident erupted inside a busy fast-food restaurant in America. The footage opens with two men, both clad in black, embroiled in a heated argument just behind the counter.
The tension quickly escalates into physical violence when one of the men, sporting dreadlocks, makes a move that appears to attempt to guide the other, a bald man wearing a hat, away from the counter area. Instead of calming the situation, the gesture sparks an explosive confrontation.
As the verbal exchange intensifies, the two men grapple fiercely. During the tussle, the man in the hat is seen grabbing at the Rastaman’s hair, resulting in several locs being torn out, a detail that has particularly shocked viewers.
In the background, a woman can be heard pleading for the violence to stop, but she is ignored by the men as the conflict escalates. The altercation spills over into the counter area, where the physicality of the encounter reaches a boiling point. Throughout the entire fight, the customer holds the employee’s hair firmly and hauls it forcefully to rip it from the man’s head.
The customer ends up with two handfuls of locs before the employee seemingly accepts defeat and the fight ends. Near the end of the video, the employee with dreadlocks appears to be urging his adversary to leave the premises. However, the bald man takes a seat in the restaurant, refusing to leave. It is unclear what started the fight, but the situation was not resolved when the video concluded.
Following the viral spread of the video, a chorus of shocked comments and harsh criticism has emerged online. Many viewers expressed outrage over the customer’s aggressive behaviour, particularly the act of pulling hair. Several viewers expressed that they would have caught a felony if someone yanked out their hair that way.
