A street vendor has been arrested after he was caught on video in an altercation with a local taco stand for apparently setting up their business too close to his.
"He gets off, goes to the truck, takes out a fire extinguisher and goes to the area with the food and starts spraying the grill, the merchandise and the meat and the guys just started moving from one place to another," Roció Gascón, the owner of the taco stand said.
José Martínez, a worker who recorded the viral video, tried to calm the food truck vendor but everything was useless. Several people who watched what happened on social media expressed their solidarity with the owner of the taco stand and her employees.
