Daytona Beach authorities have identified a man and woman who were captured on cell phone video fighting a restaurant worker in the food court at Volusia Mall over the weekend. However, the couple is yet to be located.
The video shows a man and woman yelling and arguing with a restaurant worker. At some point, as the couple is exiting the mall, the restaurant worker appears to throw something in their direction, prompting the pair to return and take down the plastic barrier and cash register.
The Daytona Beach Police Department shared the cell phone video on social media and asked for the public’s help to locate the couple to talk about what happened.
Meanwhile, the Cajun Cafe employee told his own side of the story, saying that the man and woman were unhappy with the “quality of the food” and asked for a refund. That was when the argument escalated.
When the man pushed the plastic divider, the cash register fell behind the counter and broke. The total damage was estimated to be around $1,800. The couple, who is yet to be located, then walked out of the mall.
Police are investigating the report as possible vandalism. No charges have been filed. Anyone who knows the people in the video is asked to contact Daytona Beach Police at (386) 671-5229.
