Grocery stores have been diligent about adjusting their store policies and procedures in order to keep people safe during the ongoing pandemic. Recently, footage was posted online of a customer who pushed a Walmart employee who was trying to prevent him from entering without a mask or proper face covering.

The aforementioned video was posted on Twitter earlier this week, and it clearly shows an individual trying to enter a Walmart without a mask (Walmart has been encouraging customers for months to wear face coverings when entering any of their stores). After he pushes his way into the store, the incident got even more physical after the customer shoved the worker. At the time of this post, the video had north of 11.5 million views from this account alone.

The man continued pushing past the employee and hit him three times before falling to the ground himself. At different points in the video, the employee had his hands up and was not touching the customer. According to a report by TMZ, the videos were captured at an Orlando, FL, Walmart store.

In a follow-up video, the man can be seen being escorted out by the same employee as well as another individual who is seemingly standing by to help should things have gotten physical again. "Look at what you did to me, man," the worker said in the video, presumably referencing an injury from being pushed. "I ain't done shit to you," the man replied.

Delish has reached out to Walmart for comment and will update this post when we hear back.
