Christian Dingus described the incident, stating that after kissing his boyfriend, a Shake Shack employee confronted them, insisting, "You can't be doing that here, you can't do that type of stuff." This sparked a heated argument, leading to them being asked to leave, according to Dingus' account, which escalated quickly as other staff members joined in, creating a hostile environment.
Dingus recounted the assault, saying, "One of the men, pretty forcefully, pushed me out of the way on my shoulder. That kind of just sparked the rest of them. They all started attacking me, dragging me back through the floor and continuously punching me in my head." This shows the gravity of the physical confrontation he experienced.
Dingus expressed his feelings regarding the incident by stating, "There was a desire to be violent towards me. I think it's very evident in that film," referring to the video evidence that surfaced, indicating that he believes the attack was motivated by homophobia.
A Shake Shack spokesperson stated, "We are aware of the incident and taking it very seriously," addressing the company's stance on the allegations of assault and discrimination, highlighting their commitment to investigate the claims thoroughly.
