A California father-of-seven says he was beaten-up by grocery store staff after making a sarcastic remark about the length of a checkout line.
John Valencia was filmed scuffling with staff at Stater Brothers in San Bernardino on April 20, but said the violence escalated in a private store closet.
He told Fox13 that the incident began when he went to pick up a coffee, only to be confronted with a long checkout line for a single cash register.
Valencia says he asked a manager to open another, only to be ignored.
When he told the manager 'great customer service,' in what he insists was a non-aggressive manner, he said the staffer asked him to leave.
But Valencia's ordeal escalated into a brutal beating as he walked out, when he said he was dragged into a closet by at least two grocery store workers and beaten.
He recalled: 'Other employees came and I can remember it was like they had me on the ground, and I seen them trying to close the door, and I was trying to kick the door open so they wouldn't close it, and they grabbed my legs and pulled them up.
'Two of them started beating on me, then they started kicking my face and stomping on my back and stomping my head while holding me down.'
Valencia said the beating only stopped when another worker shouted: 'Let him up, let him up.'

Sounds like none of them had the ability or brains to run a register.
Hispanics don’t tend to be violent?!?
Sorry, but that’s just not true, statistically only one ethnic group is more violent.
MI-15 isn’t made up of passive aggressive folks. Drug carttes along the border aren’t Caucasian…. Entire towns in Mexico haven’t been murdered out of existence by Asians.
I’m glad you haven’t personally had to deal with a violent one, but they, are non as a group, a low violent group.
Might want to check the Stater Brothers Employee Handbook.
Might be OK...
MI-5?
Isn’t that a highway in Michigan?
usually milling around dusting candy bar displays.
That drives me nuts!
Made those brothers mad
“What the HELL has happened to our country??”
The more God is removed from our country, the more this type of thing will happen.
It started the downward trend when school prayer became illegal. (Until then Americans were pretty decent.) Then it got worse when attending church became illegal in the spring of 2020.
“it’s a great law$uit. Store employees, on the clock, on the job site, beat up customer. A slam dunk.”
And cameras. They’re everywhere.
Oh ... ummmmmm ... they ... they weren't working that day. [shrug]
The customer said he was attacked by the manager first. The video shows a man in a white shirt with grayish hair grab the customer. A photo of the manager is right on the store's website.
My brother works in the ER. He says blacks shoot, latinos cut and asians kick the snot out of each other.
Not always but generally.
America is running out of Americans.
That's because "jumping to that conclusion" is much more often than not, correct.
For example, if I hear about an assault by a customer on the employees of McDonalds, I will check and usually it will be instigated by a black female.
This is what happens in democrat hellhole cities - frustration and evil and revenge spread.

Not buying it.
Unless there is film and audio of the whole incident , this seems like a scam for $$$$$
Exactly.
People don’t realize how much God has protected us for so long.
Let me get this straight.
A man in California gets assaulted by store employees because he’s patiently trying to pay for merchandise.
This is the same state where there is massive looting of stores with zero consequences.
“A California father-of-seven says he was beaten-up by grocery store staff...”
How does the number of kids the guy have relevant to the story? Is he supposed to get some special privilege for having a bunch of kids? “How dare you assault me! Do you know how many children I have! This is an outrage!”
They had employees to beat the guy, but not to run another cash register?
