A heroic fast-food worker lost her eye after trying to stop a man from bullying a special needs boy.
Bianca Palomera, 19, from California, was working her shift on November 12 when she saw four men intimidating the brother of one of her co-workers at Habit Burger Grill in Antioch.
The special needs boy was waiting for her sister to finish work when one of the men started to bully him - as Ms Palomera bravely stepped in to try and break up the verbal assault.
