Waffle House customer maced, tased, and zip-tied over hash brown order, lawsuit says

A Nashville man trying to order a hash brown bowl at an area Waffle House claims he was instead hit in the face with bear spray, taken to the ground with a stun gun, and immobilized with plastic zip-ties following a confrontation with the cook that went off the rails.

Gregory Lynn Hall, 62, says he was assaulted by a riot gear-clad security guard at the restaurant after getting in the middle of an argument between the cook and a server who turned out to be the cook’s wife, according to a six-figure lawsuit obtained by The Independent.
