Florida Man Birthday January 25
Florida man arrested at Waffle House over bacon controversy
The event took place in Cape Coral, Florida. The Florida man, who was visiting one of the city’s most crucial fast-food chains, sparked an argument over the way bacon is cooked. The controversy soon disturbed many people in the venue. But the Florida man had no intention of stopping.
On Wednesday, Florida’s Martin Jose Alvarez, who came to Waffle House, did not like the cooked bacon. Then he started swearing at the employees. “You better cook the damn bacon, right!” he shouted several times. Then he continued to act with racist remarks.
After Alvarez began racially insulting employees, he wasn’t going to calm down. Employees called the police, and the police who arrived at the scene arrested Alvarez. But Alvarez resisted the cops as best he could. Finally, intimidated by the taser, he agreed to surrender.
The statements of the witnesses describing what happened during the incident were quite interesting. One of the witnesses stated that Alvarez was topless and was constantly trying to shout. Another witness said that he found the discussion over bacon pointless.
After Alvarez was arrested, things slowly went back to normal at Waffle House. The fear of the employees was evident from their facial expressions. The police wanted to get additional information from the employees. Still, they could not quickly get over the surprise of the incident.
Waffle House employees said that they could not make sense of what happened. They stated that they cooked the bacon properly and there were no problems. But they did testify that Alvarez was obsessed with bacon. They said they decided to call the police when they heard racist insults.
According to the arrest report, Alvarez, 28, faced charges of disorderly intoxication, resisting law enforcement, and a few simple assaults. After Alvarez’s interrogation was completed, he was sent to the Lee County Jail. It is unclear whether any bail fees have been set.
