A SUPERMARKET security guard "pepper sprayed a shopper after he refused to wear mask and rammed another customer with his cart."
The incident took place this week at a Mid-Wilshire Ralphs grocery store.
Cellphone footage from the incident shows a man sitting on the floor holding his eyes, surrounded in a puddle of milk – which tends to be used to cool down the eyes of someone who has been hit with mace.
Witnesses told CBS that an employee told the man he had to wear a face mask or leave the store.
The man then rammed his shopping cart into a woman and the worker used pepper spray on him and called the cops.
One witness said: "I was just coming down to the end of an aisle and all of a sudden I heard some commotion and people were getting in the aisle.
"I looked down there and there was this guy just yelling at someone, and then all of a sudden you see him, you know, take the handles of his cart and just try to ram this woman."
The witness said the man then continued to scream at the woman while he was pushing his cart into her, while another woman tried to push him out of the way.
