A late-night disturbance at a Hayes Valley restaurant turned into an incident that ended with arrests, online identification, and an employer cutting ties.
On Saturday night, an altercation unfolded at Hazie's, a restaurant at 501 Hayes Street in San Francisco, after a visibly tired and emotional customer and her companion arrived appearing already intoxicated. According to bartender Miguel Marchese, the couple were seated for dinner before asking to speak to the manager, who later removed their drinks from the table. Events escalated when the customer entered the kitchen filming, slapped away a hostess's raised hand during a de-escalation attempt, and moved behind the bar to harass staff, prompting filming by patrons and employees.
