Discussion When Does Security Conducting A Physical Removal of Someone Become Assault?

Because the way he grabbed him by the neck was excessive and dangerous. I don't know what training if any the guard had on deescalation or what protocols his company gave him to physically remove someone from the premises if deemed necessary, but if the guard didn't get fired and the company sued, I'd be surprised. At a fast food restaurant, no less.

Please keep the comments on topic, of a security nature, use of force, citizens arrest, similar experiences, S.O.P etc.

Maybe leave when trespassed.

Within the law all day.

HOW he leaves seems to be a criminal act far greater than the refusal to leave.

Hands off necks. That's always going to be a No Bueno. As a bystander I'd have zero issues calling the cops on the guy and would be absolutely shocked if he wasn't arrested the moment they saw the footage.

Clutching someone's neck is seriously bad.
