The Dunkin\u2019 Donuts location displayed a sign asking customers to wear one as well.<\/p>\n<p>The victim put a shirt over his face as a makeshift mask when he was confronted, prosecutors said, but his apparent attempt to deescalate the situation failed and the two went back and forth. The suspect became \u201cbelligerent\u201d towards customers and Dunkin\u2019 Donuts employees, police said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile exiting the store, the suspect threw his hot coffee in the direction of the victim striking the victim on the back of his lower legs,\u201d police said.<\/p>\n<p>Millsap attempted to flee after the incident and resisted arrest, injuring an officer\u2019s hand while kicking. The officer was not seriously hurt, however.<\/p>\n<p>Millsap is unemployed, homeless, has a five-year-old son, and was planning on starting a new job Thursday, his defense attorney said.<\/p>\n<p>He was arrested and charged with one count of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, one count of disorderly conduct, and one count of resisting arrest.<\/p>\n<p>His bail was set at $250 and he has also been ordered to undergo a mental health evaluation and to steer clear of both the Dunkin\u2019 Donuts location and the victim.<\/p>\n<p>The victim said he was not seriously hurt and declined medical treatment. Prosecutors said he asked if he could come inside the Dunkin\u2019 Donuts without a face mask and was given permission.<\/p>\n<p>Thursday\u2019s mask incident is far from the first time a mask mandate has caused a violent confrontation over whether an individual is complying.<\/p>\n<p>Similar incidents have occurred in other stores and on airplanes.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent incident on a flight, a woman was arrested and charged after she allegedly assaulted an elderly fellow passenger aboard a Delta Air Lines flight, hitting him in the face and spitting on him as they argued about masks.<\/p>\n<p>Video of the incident shows the woman repeatedly telling the man to put his mask on. The man points out that the woman\u2019s mask is also down and tells her, \u201cYou\u2019re a \u2026 Karen. Sit down\u201d as well as calling her a vulgarity.<\/p>\n<p>Just a day before the Dunkin\u2019 Donuts incident, an American Airlines flight to London <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/travel\/article\/american-airlines-flight-turns-around-mask-dispute\/index.html\">turned<\/a> around and returned to Miami about an hour into the flight due to a \u201cdisruptive customer refusing to comply with the federal mask requirement,\u201d the airline said.<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
