A video of a racial incident between a female and a male at a Spur restaurant at the Glen in South of Johannesburg has gone viral and caused an outrage on social media.
In the video, a white male is seen standing by a table where a black woman was dining with several kids. He tells her that she needs to discipline her child after an alleged physical altercation between their children.The heated exchange gets out of control, to a point where the two end up hurling insults at each other in front of the children.
Several times in the video the man is seen trying to physically assault the woman and further tries to intimidate her by heaving the table she's sitting at.
Spur Texamo has since released a statement saying the man has been banned from any of it's chains nationally.
