The woman continues trying to fight the restaurant staff outside and grabs onto a bartender's hair while someone can be heard saying, "Let go."

The woman then charges towards the restaurant staff before appearing to fall onto the ground.

“The night was quite chaotic, the couple came in, they were requesting dinner service,” a bartender at the restaurant told KRON4. “Initially, the server verbalized to me that she could tell that her table was not only intoxicated, but perhaps on some other substances and they were giving her quite a rough time and being quite verbally abrasive with her and then I do believe after that, they asked for the manager to intervene.”

It's unclear when the woman was taken into custody, but police told KRON4 that she was arrested in connection with the incident at the restaurant.
