A YouTube video of a woman angered by a man who confronted her for parking in a disabled parking spot outside a Tim Hortons in Toronto has sparked howls of online outrage.
The video, posted by the man — named Ryan Favro — has garnered more than 100 thousand views since it was posted on Monday.
It begins with Favro politely asking the woman about her parking as she returns to her Jeep with her Tim Horton's coffee and ice coffee.
"So why do you park in a handicapped parking spot? Are you handicapped?" he is heard asking.
"No," she says, and walks away.
"Well, what makes you so special that you can park in a handicapped spot?" he asks.
"Pardon me, I'll break your (expletive) phone," she says as she gets into the driver's seat, and slams the door.
The woman then gets back out, and hurls what appears to be the iced coffee — along with profanities — at the videographer.
When he then persists in asking, "What makes you so special?" she throws the coffee at him.
"I'm taking this to the police, you assaulted me," he says.
"Good for you!" she yells, before backing up and driving away, licence plate clearly visible in the video.
One woman, identified as Brigitte MacDougall, said she felt sorry for the woman.
"Imagine yourself in her shoes right now, reading all of these hateful and mean, nasty comments," MacDougall said.
"I bet she feels pretty bad about her actions, but the worst part is how this is going to affect her as a person, reading all these awful things. We all make mistakes."
What terrible behaviour! We don't stand for this up here.
How do you feel about these freelance vigilante journalists trying to take matters in their own hands?
