Restroom rage? Man assaults store owner over lack of toilet paper

7:27 AM EDT, September 3, 2008

A gas station owner told police Monday he was pummeled by a man who came out of the restroom and shouted, "You don't have any toilet paper," according to a police report released Tuesday.

The 57-year-old owner of the BP station in the 8800 block of Southeast U.S. 1 told police that when the man walked in he headed "straight into the bathroom."

Minutes later, the man walked out and started verbally assaulting him. The restroom-goer began knocking over displays and shouted, "You don't have any toilet paper."

The owner told the man to leave, but he began hitting the owner "with his fist and whatever else the suspect could grab."

The station owner said he was calling the police after the man let go of his shirt. The assailant then ran out of the store.

What shoddy news reporting. The guy didn't eaven answer the buring question.....

Was, in fact, the bathroom out of toilet paper? Is there toilet paper in the bathroom now? Who is responsible for making sure the toilet paper is full? This guy was justified in his anger, whoever failed to fill the toilet paper machine should be fired immediately.

Is there going to be an investigation?
