NOKOMIS — An allegedly belligerent man screamed at servers, exposed himself to employees and punched a bartender at a Nokomis seafood restaurant Friday.
Nicholas A. Schock, 36, of Wauchula, faces charges of battery, touch or strike; and disturbing the peace, breach of the peace, in an incident that was filmed and was becoming “viral” online over the weekend.
It began about 3 p.m. Friday at Pop’s Sunset Grill in Nokomis in the 100 block of Circuit Road.
“He came in the entrance and was spouting some irate hate dialogue and pumping his fist,” Pop’s General Manager Stephanie Brown said Sunday.
Several witnesses said he laid down on the ground and exposed himself. Brown said authorities were already being called about the situation.
In the video, a man is seen pulling up his pants and making sexual derogatory statements toward workers. The man is also heard screaming about white supremacy.
“The Aryan Nation will rule the world,” the suspect says on the video, laughing.
Another man works to help Schock leave. “Hey, we have children in here,” the man said.
“I don’t give a f---,” Schock replies. “Call Donald Trump.”
Schock then slaps a hostess and all hell breaks loose. Coworkers and patrons jumped on Schock and took him down.
