Dramatic fight at Atlanta airport coffee shop goes viral
ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - A young woman was fired from her job at a Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport coffee shop on Saturday after getting into a fight with a coworker, according to police.
It all started with a “heated argument” over espresso shots at Harvest & Grounds by Gate D9, according to the incident report. At least two store managers had to jump in and hold the woman back from attacking another woman, the incident report states. She picked up a chair to throw it at one point, and one of the managers snatched it out of her hands, police said.
The woman left before police arrived, and the employees said she had been fired.
A video of the incident has gone viral online — including on X, formerly Twitter, where it garnered more than 1.5 million views. It shows the employee violently grappling with several coworkers, including slapping one in the face. Near the middle of the video, she pretends to walk away before suddenly turning back and vaulting over the service counter, later trying to hit a man with what appears to be a metal pan.
“Give me my stuff,” the woman repeatedly yells.
Police have not noted if there will be any charges.
