A California security guard stabbed a grocery store customer after he allegedly became violent when employees asked the man to wear a mask, according to police.
Witnesses on the scene said the victim entered the Vons supermarket in Santa Monica, California, and staff requested he put on a face mask, which caused him to become “belligerent” and assault the employee.
This altercation between the employee and the man led the security guard to intervene, which caused the scene to get bloody.
Police say the security guard tried to escort the customer out of the store, but a struggle and fight ensued between the two. As the security guard and customer struggled, the guard produced a pocket knife and then reportedly stabbed the victim multiple times.
