Police are making enquiries following an incident at Hengrove McDonald's on Friday night. According to an eyewitness, a group of young people threw bricks at the restaurant while diners were inside, smashing two windows.
Avon and Somerset Police has now confirmed that it is investigating an assault and criminal damage at the premises. A spokesperson said: "A number of youths visiting McDonald's in Hengrove were said to be being a nuisance, and they were asked to leave by a member of staff who was reportedly racially abused by the group and assaulted, causing a finger injury.
"We were subsequently called at 7.30pm. A short time after the group left the premises, two of the youths are said to have returned and thrown objects causing windows to break. They then fled the scene on foot before officers attended at approximately 7.45pm. Enquiries, including reviewing CCTV, are ongoing."
