In the video, an unidentified customer confronts a counter employee over a Spanish-language channel being on in the eatery. She demands a refund and then threatens to "look up" the employee and "get them out of town." In the expletive-filled viral video, the woman claims her family has been part of the Hatboro community for 200 years and that her grandfather fought in World War II.

"Give me my money back. I’m not giving my money to some illegal immigrant,” the customer says on the video.
