An employee is heard notifying a party of 14 that their table is ready, but the woman, who captured the video, asks for just a moment, presumably to witness the altercation going down at the hostess stand.
“Dined and dashed. But the idiots forgot her purse,” the text on the video reads. “SO the manager was holding the purse.”
The accused thief is heard yelling at the restaurant manager, demanding her bag back, as a man with her attempts to call her down.
