Crabby Customer

SANDUSKY, Ohio — Police say a man in Ohio got so upset over a mistake on the price of crab cakes that he punched a grocery store manager several times and spit in his face.

Authorities in Sandusky arrested 61-year-old Ralph Barr on charges of assault and criminal damaging.

Police say the store made a mistake in the price of crab cakes and offered to sell the first pound at a discounted price but the rest at the correct price.

The store manager says he was punched five or six times and head-butted.

Barr told police that the manager hit him with a price gun, but witnesses said the manager didn’t fight back.

A message seeking comment was left Wednesday at Barr’s home.

    Over FOOD? Are people serious?

    America has some serious anger issues and you would think with the Dr.s willing to prescribe Xanax like candy there would be less of this.

    My heart goes out to the manager. I do have to say I would be the living crap out of the guy once he hit me first. That manager showed true restraint.

    I had a bunch of drunk guys come in one night when I was alone on the front end… and of course, they were trying to buy beer. They were loud, impatient, and ALL WREAKED of booze. I went to get the over night manager for backup… long story short, after my manager refused to sell them the beer, one of the guys threatened to take him out in the parking lot and rip him to shreds. [I honestly think the over night manager would have thrown down, he was THAT pissed off at the scene they were making in the store.] Thankfully, after I went to the phone and announced I was calling the proper authorities, they walked out with their tails between their legs. I’m really glad they came to their senses, I honestly thought I was going to see blood that night… I finally stopped shaking when I got home… you never know what kind of people are gonna come into your place of work…
