Shocking moment a man delivers a brutal slap to a fellow IHOP diner - sparking a huge brawl

Call it the International House of Pandemonium.

Shocking video that went viral on the internet shows a brawl erupt at an IHOP.

In the clip, a patron is seen - and heard - slapping another customer with an open hand.

The intensity of the slap got everyone’s attention at the restaurant, which instantly turned into the scene of a nasty fight.

Two men - the slapper and his victim - then began to duke it out.

Immediately after the slap was heard, an IHOP employee in a red t-shirt tried to get in between the combatants in the vain hope that cooler heads would prevail.

The slapped individual shoved the IHOP employee aside and went after his opponent.

The two men began to tussle, sending nearby chairs and tables tumbling.

Chaos ensued, as patrons stayed back while the two went at it. 

Story Of The Tryst In The Foggy Maserati

The Michigan couple cited for trysting in a car parked outside police headquarters was found clothes-free in the cramped rear seat of a Maserati sports car, according to an incident report which notes that the duo chose the spot because “the parking was free and the police department is a safe place to be.”

Just after midnight on August 1, a cop in Birmingham, a Detroit suburb, returned to police headquarters and noticed a “running white sports car with its lights on” parked in a spot reserved for municipal vehicles. The Maserati Ghibli’s rear windows were fogged up and the officer spotted “what appeared to be a male with no shirt or pants on and a female with no shirt on” in the rear seats.

The officer shined a flashlight into the car, but the occupants did not open a door or window and made no attempt to acknowledge the officer.

When a second cop arrived, the passengers finally exited the 2015 Maserati in a “very disheveled" state. Klajdi Mataj, 24, was missing his shoes, had only one sock on, and was wearing his shirt inside out. The zipper to his pants was also down and he “seemed very flustered,” police reported. Sarah Al-Najjar, 25, was also shoeless and had her shirt on inside out.

The pair denied having sex in the Maserati, claiming that they were just “kissing and cuddling.” But, cops noted, “Neither subject could give a clear answer as to why they did not have any clothes on.” A review of surveillance video showed the couple spent more than 90 minutes in the rear of the Maserati before their encounter was interrupted by police.

Asked about their parking spot, Mataj, a mortgage loan banker, replied that he “parked the vehicle here because the parking was free and the police department is a safe place to be.”

After the couple was issued citations, they returned to the Maserati. With the car’s doors open, police heard Al-Najjar tell Mataj, “I told you we shouldn’t have parked here.”

Though Mataj and Al-Najjar were charged with disorderly conduct, local prosecutors do not appear interested in pursuing the misdemeanor matter. Mataj’s case was dismissed yesterday, while Al-Najjar is scheduled for a September 23 court appearance. (2 pages)

Shocking moment two Oklahoma firefighters are sent flying after being struck by an out-of-control U-Haul trailer at the scene of a crash

Two firefighters in Oklahoma narrowly escaped with their lives after being struck by an out-of-control U-Haul trailer.

Officials in the state released dramatic dashcam video of an SUV losing control before the U-Haul trailer it was towing slammed into two firefighters who were already on the scene responding to a crash.

The two men with the Stringtown Fire Department were standing at the side of the road when an oncoming vehicle appeared to hydroplane.\

The spinning SUV ended up striking the side of a parked emergency vehicle which saw the trailer spin around and directly smash into the two men. 

As one firefighter faced the out-of-control vehicle, he raised his arms and looked as though he was attempting to push his colleague out of the way before the trailer sent both of them flying several feet in the air.

Incredibly, the firefighters did not suffer any broken bones and 'miraculously' walked away with just bruises. 

'This is a graphic reminder to slow down, especially when roads are slick and you see flashing lights,' the police said.

Terrifying moment motorbike travelling on WRONG side of the road crashes with oncoming car sending rider and passenger flying into the air

The heart-stopping video has emerged showing a motorbike rider and his passenger crashing with an oncoming car on a road in Crimea.

The footage was captured by a dash-cam in a car behind the bike on August 10.

The video begins by showing the bike coming into focus in one of the two lanes on the other side of the road.

There is a thick white line dividing one side of the road from the other.

The bike is aiming to overtake a caravan taking up the full breadth of its lane. 

The bike successfully passes a white car.

However, the next car to come along is in the same overtaking lane and there isn't space for both of the two vehicles who seem to be travelling at speed.

The bike clips the side of the black car that is also overtaking at the same time.

The impact is enough to send items from the bike into the air, with debris soon littering the road.

The rider struggles to keep control of the bike which starts to spin resulting in both rider and passenger being thrown into the air. 

The duo look like rag dolls as they bounce and roll onto the road.

The passenger skids along the road before coming to a halt

Some Nitwit Is Facing A Felony Collar Over The New Popeyes Chicken Sandwich

police today will be reviewing security camera footage in an attempt to identify the man who yesterday pulled a gun on the manager of a Popeyes in Texas after being told that the restaurant had run out of its new chicken sandwich.

The suspect, cops say, was among a group of two men and three women who arrived at the Houston eatery’s drive-thru window shortly before 9 PM Monday. The prospective diners sought to order the Popeyes chicken sandwich that debuted recently and touched off a sandwich war with Chick-fil-A.

Upon learning that the restaurant was out of the sandwiches, the group exited their vehicle and tried to storm the Popeyes. When stymied by a manager who locked the front door, one man became upset and pulled out a pistol in an attempt to secure a sandwich.

The manager, cops say, again stated that no sandwiches were available, prompting the group to depart the Popeyes in a blue SUV.

According to a Houston Police Department spokesperson, cops will return today to the Popeyes to review footage recorded by cameras inside and outside the restaurant (seen above). If the suspect and his cohorts were recorded, cops will likely release images so that members of the public can help identify them. The gunman faces a felony aggravated assault charge.

No Popeyes employees or restaurant patrons were injured during the incident, which cops initially described as “Male pulled a gun on employees of restaurant after they ran out of chicken sandwich.”

Bahamas resident shelters 97 stray and sick dogs in her home as Hurricane Dorian strikes

A woman in the Bahamas has sheltered nearly 100 stray and abandoned dogs inside her home to protect them from Hurricane Dorian. 

Chella Philips, manager of The Voiceless Dogs of Nassau, Bahamas, has given shelter to 97 dogs in New Providence. 

In a viral Facebook post, Philips shared several photos and updates on the dogs as Hurricane Dorian slammed into the island. 

'97 dogs are inside my house and 79 of them are inside my master bedroom. It has been insane since last night, poop and piss non stop but at least they are respecting my bed and nobody has dared to jump in,' she wrote. 

he Voiceless Dogs of Nassau is not a nonprofit that works to send local dogs to adoption and rescue agencies in the United States.

'We may not get hit as hard as other islands and the saddest part is that after the hurricane leave the Bahamas, some islands will take a long time to recover.'

Each island has abundance of homeless dogs, my heart is so broken for the ones without a place to hide a CAT 5 monster and only God can protect them now.' 

Philips noted that when she shared her post on Sunday afternoon, it marked the fourth anniversary of that she'd been helping homeless dogs. 

She says she has cared for almost 1,000 abandoned dogs. 

The Facebook post has more than 3,100 shares and nearly 300 comments. 

People who've heard about her efforts have donated crates for sick and frightened dogs.

Philips told ABC Action News that she's lost power and some water has begun leaking into her home.   

Hurricane Dorian made landfall in the Bahamas on Sunday and has already left the islands in destruction

Sierra Gullo, an employee at the Humane Society of the Treasure Coast, has also taken in stray dogs in preparation for Hurricane Dorian. 

Gullo and the two rescue dogs reside in Fort Pierce, Florida. 

Shelters along Treasure Coast are working to get stray and homeless animals into safe places before the storm hits.
