A man armed only with a spatula is being hailed as a hero for fending off a maniac terrorizing an In-N-Out Burger in Southern California.
Footage of wild encounter showed the unidentified drive-thru defender engaging with a woman swinging a large piece of wood inside the eatery in Lake Elsinore.
The customer who captured the crazy showdown described watching it all unfold, saying she first heard a young man in the car in front of her in the drive-thru yell to a woman inside to “Get the F out of here.”
She said she initially thought the pair was just having some kind of “beef,” believing they knew each other.
The witness recounted seeing no staff in the kitchen before the driver suddenly climbed through the drive-thru window to confront the woman.
“And he gets out of his car and he jumps through the window like he’s Spiderman or does this Jackie Chan move feet first through the window,” the witness said.
The video shows the young man with a spatula in his hand as he confronts the woman, who is seen taking multiple swings at him.
“And he starts battling this lady with the stick,” the witness added, saying the woman “had chased all the staff into some back room.”
The video cuts out after the man appears to lunge at the woman.
The witness said she later learned that the woman was “upset because they didn’t make her burger fast enough.”
“But this kid, like totally, saved the day,” she added.
The witness called on the popular fast-food joint to reward the man with “burgers for life.”
Commenters on the post also praised the man as a hero.
“A lot of people don’t have the balls to stand up for others or even themselves these days! I give this kid mad props!!!” one person wrote.
“Yeah burgers for life for this young man. This is the way,” another added.
