SEATTLE — A man eating a burrito on a Capitol Hill street was punched in the head when he declined to give a stranger a bite of his food.
Seattle police said that at 4:30 p.m. on Saturday, the victim was sitting outside a restaurant on Broadway and East Pine Street eating a burrito when he was approached by a stranger.
"Give me a bite of your burrito," the man demanded.
Police received several calls about the incident. Officers arrived in time to find the attacker climbing onto a bus at Broadway and East Pine Street.
When the victim told the man he was being rude, the other man shoved him and again demanded a bite of the burrito. Police said when the victim stood up, the other man punched him in the head and ran.
Officers arrested the 24-year-old man, who police said also matched the description of a man who had just stolen liquor from a nearby store.
He was booked into the King County Jail.
