A Chipotle worker was restrained and brutally beaten by two unruly customers who were informed they would be charged more for chicken.
Jamel Bernard Williams, 36, and Kayla Nicole Pyle, 34, face charges in the brutal assault of an unidentified worker at Indian Land Chipotle on Dec. 10, according to the Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office.
The suspects, both from Charlotte, North Carolina, arrived at the restaurant chain around 9 p.m. when Plye placed an order and allegedly asked for extra chicken for his meal.
The 20-year-old Chipotle employee then informed Plye that the extra protein would cost extra, leading to a verbal argument between the two, Queens City News reported.
The upset employee decided to leave work early due to the dispute, but the encounter soon turned violent as she left.

As the worker was leaving the restaurant, Williams ran into the store through a side entrance and attacked the employee, according to police.
Williams, who is 6-foot-3 and 300 pounds, pushed the employee to the ground before relentlessly pulling the woman’s hair and throwing her around as customers yelled at the giant to “stop,” according to footage obtained by the outlet.
Williams is seen crouching over the little worker, appearing to step on her as she curls up for protection on the ground, the disturbing video shows.

As the attack continues, Pyle runs and allegedly hits the worker in the head.
Williams and Plye fled the scene with a minor, according to police.
The Chipotle employee suffered injuries during the assault at work, but sought treatment on her own and the extent of her injuries is unknown, police said.

A lock of Williams’ hair was found at the scene and was presented as evidence for analysis.
Officers said Williams and Pyle were identified with the help of Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department personnel.
“I don’t know what was said between Pyle and the victim, but the victim was going home and Williams chased her from behind and attacked her in the restaurant’s dining room,” Sheriff Barry Faile said in a statement Friday. .

“The aggression was completely unjustified. I hope the victim has recovered from her injuries. “I appreciate the help we received from Charlotte Mecklenburg Police in identifying Williams and Pyle, and I encourage them to turn themselves in and let the justice system take its course in this case.”
Arrest warrants were issued for both Williams and Plye on Wednesday, police shared.
Williams has been charged with first-degree assault and battery, while Pyle faces a charge of second-degree assault and battery.
The town of Indian Land sits on the border of North Carolina and South Carolina and is about 20 miles northwest of Charlotte.
Earlier this month, an Ohio woman who threw a plate of burrito in a Chipotle employee’s face was sentenced to work at least 20 hours a week for two months at the restaurant.
“Didn’t you get your burrito bowl just the way you like it and this is how you respond?” Parma Municipal Court Judge Timothy Gilligan told Rosemary Hayne before sentencing her to work at the restaurant.
