Get Over Here and Die! Cosmetics Executive Whips and Threatens Import Car Dealership Staff

Yesterday (October 12) at around 10:50 AM, an imported car dealership in Hannnam-dong, Seoul.

A man holds his belt, threatens a nearby dealership employee once, and then swings it directly at their face.

Despite the ongoing verbal abuse and assault, people around try to pull the man away, but he cannot contain his anger.

He eventually brings a shovel from near the dealership, strikes it on the floor several times, and walks around various parts of the dealership holding the broken shovel to threaten employees.

The disturbance finally ended only after the police even were dispatched.

The man who swung a belt and slapped the face of an imported car dealership employee is Mr. A, an executive at a small and medium-sized cosmetics company.

Mr. A visited the dealership again today, a day after the crime, and threatened retaliation for reporting to the police, eventually being arrested red-handed at around 10:00 AM.

The police applied charges of drunk driving as well, believing that Mr. A drove to the dealership while intoxicated.

The police arrested and are investigating Mr. A on charges including special assault, and it is reported that Mr. A claimed during the investigation that the incident occurred while protesting a defect in a purchased vehicle.

The dealership's stance is that Mr. A excessively manipulated a part, which appeared to have caused it to break, and when they guided him about this, the assault suddenly took place.

The police plan to investigate the imported car dealership employee as well on charges of mutual assault against Mr. A.
