"The clearly wasted and bellicose woman and her boyfriend were refused further alcohol service since they were already blotto, so she whipped out her phone, went on a tirade, pulled the bartender's hair, and caused an enormous scene. It took several staffers to remove her and her boyfriend (while she was still grabbing the bartender's hair), and then she was hilariously tripped by a staffer and fell once they had her out of the place."
"We know that the drunken woman, Shireen Afkari, was fired from her job at Strava over the social media fallout from the incident. And we know that the bartender who had his hair pulled, Miguel Marchese, was fired from his job at Hazie's, probably because he tripped Afkari. But Afkari was still facing public intoxication charges, though now TMZ reports that the charges against Afkari have been dropped."
"Robert Rueca, an SFPD spokesperson, tells TMZ ... the department does NOT refer public intoxication cases to the district attorney for possible prosecution, adding that no other charges will be filed against Afkari, TMZ reports. As for any fines, Rueca said his understanding is that Afkari will face no further penalties."
A violent, viral SantaCon incident at Hazie's involved an intoxicated woman, identified as Shireen Afkari, who pulled a bartender's hair and caused a major disturbance after being refused more alcohol. Multiple staffers removed Afkari and her companion; a staffer tripped her as they escorted her out. Social media fallout led to Afkari's firing from Strava and the bartender Miguel Marchese's firing from Hazie's, reportedly over the tripping. The San Francisco Police Department indicated it does not refer public intoxication cases to the district attorney, and no additional charges or fines will be filed or imposed.
