A director of a global investment banking company has been fired after he was filmed attacking restaurant staff when they refused to let him use the bathroom.
Roman Cambell, now ex-director at Credit Suisse, stumbled into the Shanghai Mong Korean restaurant in New York City earlier this month drunk at 2am demanding to be allowed to use the bathroom.
In footage shared on Instagram, the owner explained the bathrooms were only for customers.
Cambell could be seen recording the owner while she spoke, before the owner pulled out her own phone and started recording him.
Cambell then attempted to snatch her mobile phone out of her hand before forcing his way into the back of the restaurant.
Staff could be seen trying to shove Cambell out of what looked like the kitchen when he turned around and lashed out at one waiter, punching them numerous times in the head.
"Our waiter's forehead was bleeding after the guy hit his head," the Instagram user said.
Other restaurant staff got involved, trying to force the man out of the restaurant. Cambell was then seen grabbing the owner's phone out of her hand and smashing it onto the ground.
The owner's daughter told the Daily Mail her mother suffered back pain after being pushed by Cambell.
"Everyone in the restaurant's doing okay. My mum's lower back was in pain for a few days because she was pushed by Roman."
Cambell told The New York Post that he doesn't think he did anything wrong and that he was "provoked" by one of the waiters "spraining his thumb".
The daughter said police did arrive and spoke to the man but didn't charge him with any offence.
Sources told The Post Cambell has since been let go by Credit Suisse.
"Credit Suisse is aware of the allegations circulating over social media, which occurred off property and are unrelated to Credit Suisse. Credit Suisse maintains and adheres to a policy condemning discrimination, bullying or violence of any kind," the company said in a statement.
