The Wiener’s Circle has shared video of a man who threw a brick through the window of the Lincoln Park restaurant Wednesday night after he was denied service for refusing to wear a mask.

The man entered the restaurant about 8:40 p.m. in the 2600 block of North Clark Street and attempted to order food but “became irate” when workers asked him to put on a mask, Chicago police said.

He threw snow at a worker and then fled in a car, police said. He returned and threw a brick through the front door of the restaurant, shattering the glass, according to police and a tweet from the Wiener’s Circle.
