I didn’t even know there were brutes in Vegas.
Shocking security footage shows the moment a Las Vegas nail salon owner was savagely beaten inside his shop by three assailants for allegedly refusing to allow a woman to use the store’s bathroom.
Nathan Nguyen, the owner of the Nail Palace, was working Sunday when a woman came into his salon asking for a pedicure, with her sole intention being using the bathroom, according to 8 News Now.
Nguyen declined the woman’s request before she smashed a plant as she left the store, which is located two miles away from the Las Vegas Strip.
The woman returned with three individuals who beat the owner inside his salon, a video obtained by the outlet shows.
For nearly a minute, they stood over Nguyen, showering him with punches and kicks as he lay on the floor, trying to shield himself from the blows.
“I did not do anything wrong yesterday, I did not hurt her too. I don’t understand why people come back and hurt me like that,” Nguyen told the outlet.
Following the beating, the suspects were captured on cellphone video by people at the business next to the nail salon fleeing in a red sedan.
Another video shows Nguyen slouching over on a couch inside his business, gasping for air in front of a bloodstained floor.
Honestly, the Viets probably would have let them use the bathroom. They probably just assumed that if they did, they would get beaten.
Turns out, it was a lose-lose situation.
