A couple has been charged with assault and affray after they allegedly attacked a restaurant owner and a customer when they refused to use the QR check-in code at a restaurant in Forster on the mid-New South Wales Coast.
The 34-year old man and 27-year old woman refused to check in to the restaurant, and were refused entry as a result.
According to the restaurant owner, the man said: ‘I'm not going to follow anything … that's all bullshit and I'm not going to do that for my personal reasons'.
The man then allegedly picked up a bottle of water, smashed it against a wall and punched the restaurant owner in the face.
The man was then escorted from the restaurant and allegedly punched the owner, Mr Mostafa Jamalifard, on the street.
