Watch: Angry Customer Cuts IHOP Employee After Being Told to Wear a Mask [Video]

As a good portion of the country is facing increased restrictions as an effort to slow down the rapid spread of COVID-19, one man got so upset by the current mandatory mask mandate at a Queens IHOP that he actually cut one of the employees.

via TMZ:

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … this wild incident went down Tuesday in Queens where surveillance video captured the horrifying scene. At first, you see the customer in the waiting area with another guy — although, we’re told there were at least 3 men who rolled in together.

Looks like a staffer’s telling him to mask up, which seems to piss him off. He gets up to argue, and appears to leave the building — but when the whole crew comes back, he’s way more agitated.

The video shows the guy who allegedly refused to put on a mask storm back into the IHOP and charge past a table and other waiting customers … apparently trying to get at someone off-camera.

While trying to get a hold of that person, the guy reaches over and grabs something from his friend — cops say it was a knife — and then chases some workers through the restaurant. Toward the end of the video, he actually swings at someone before booking it.

According to our sources, the man swung at a 40-year-old female employee and cut her arm, which required stitches.

As for the guy here … we’re told he and his pals made a clean getaway, but cops are on the hunt.

All that commotion over IHOP? The food isn’t even that good.
