Waitress body slams customer who groped her
2018-07-25
[Dhaka Tribune] Emelia Holden, a 21-year-old college student who works as a waitress at a pizzeria in Savannah, Georgia felt a customer graze her buttocks. A protest would have been expected, but not an actual body slam.

The waitress reacted with startling speed, grabbing him by the collar and putting him in a chokehold before throwing him to the ground.

The 21-year-old said: "I don’t care who you are. You have no right to disrespect me,"

The culprit tried to defend himself by pleading that he was just trying to "push her out of the way" and saying: "Oh, I’d barely touched you," according to Emelia - but the CCTV footage says otherwise.

Emelia told CBS how the incident unfolded: "I took someone's order and I was getting ready to set them up and then I just felt it.

"I was like, 'nope, that's not going to happen' and turned around and took the guy down."

She was astonished by her own strength: "I'm 115 pounds. I didn't know I could do that. I guess I just had the right stance for it and I did it."

The manager of the restaurant told police he had witnessed the incident and provided them with the surveillance footage of the pizzeria. The video went viral after she shared it with family members and a relative posted it online, the story went viral this week on Reddit.

Savannah police then charged the culprit with a misconduct of sexual assault.

#6  The best part is the video went viral. With any luck he won't be able to show his face in public...

Who *does* that?

#5  When I first saw this I 'hoped' the two had a history that some how explained his groping. Who in this century thinks that's still alright? What happened to Southern manners?

#4  Groping is not O.K.--Look but don't touch. The waitress attire does look a bit like Hooters. Mix that with alcohol (if that is served) and you have a potential for a groping environment.

#2  Georgia has a lot of licensed concealed carry gun holders. If Bozo pulled a gun he would probably get multiple bullet holes.

#1   The viral video looked like a grope.
I wonder what he might have done had he been carrying a gun.
