(KTLA) – Nick Fuentes, a white supremacist leader who recently dined with former President Donald Trump, was caught on camera hurling a drink at customers at a Hollywood In-N-Out Burger over the weekend.
Fuentes had apparently been confronted by diners and, according to TMZ, initially pretended to be someone else. The customers tossed small paper cups filled with ketchup at Fuentes on their way out the door.
The video shows Fuentes throwing his drink in their direction, splattering customers standing next to him who did not appear to be involved.
Police were not called to the scene and Fuentes left a short time later, TMZ reported.
Fuentes later took to Telegram to discuss the incident, according to Insider, saying that there was a “food fight at in n out” and adding, “nobody was harmed.”
Fuentes was a Boston University student when he attended a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, that erupted in violence in 2017. He became an internet personality who used his platform to spread white supremacist and antisemitic views. Fuentes leads a far-right extremist movement called “America First,” with supporters known as “Groypers.”
Two weeks ago, Fuentes attended a dinner with rapper Kanye West (aka “Ye”) who has also espoused antisemitic conspiracy theories, at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago, Florida estate.
Trump has said he was not aware of Fuentes’ white supremacist views before he hosted him.
