Shocking video shows the moment a seven-and–half–month pregnant Popeye’s manager is beaten and kicked in the stomach after an all-female fight broke out earlier this week.
The brutal incident unfolded after a group of suspected Texas State University students pulled into the drive-thru and tried placing four separate orders.
After being told to come inside the restaurant because the orders were too complicated, a fight broke out between the girls and the manager, who was eventually helped by her staff after she was repeatedly struck.
Prior to the fight, the Popeye’s employee taking the order ‘asked very nicely if they can place their order inside’ because it was too complicated, store owner Vedo Kemraj told KSAT.com.
‘When the customers came inside, they started arguing with my general manager and went to the back of the counter and started fighting,’ he added
The unidentified general manager allegedly told the women during the altercation that she was pregnant, but they continued hitting her. She can be seen wearing blue.
The store owner said that was when his staff jumped in to defend the pregnant general manager after being repeatedly kicked in the stomach.
The disturbing cell-phone footage went viral after being posted to Twitter on Tuesday and the tweet has since been taken down.
The violent clip shows a group of women behind the counter of the popular food chain throwing jabs and punches at each other.
The fight then spews out into a walkway causing two of the women to fall to the floor as they continue to punch each other.
Kemraj said that in his 17 years of owning the store he has never seen anything like this.

The general manager spent the night in a hospital as a precaution to monitor the baby.
Kemraj said despite being hit in the stomach and suffering minor injuries, the general manager asked if she could work today’s shift.
A spokesperson for Texas State University said the school is looking into the incident and cannot confirm whether the group of girls involved in the fight are Texas State students.
The Popeye’s location is just one mile away from Texas State University, where the four customer are thought to attend, though the university has yet to confirm
