Vancouver police are reviewing what they have described as an “inappropriate, disrespectful and hateful” customer tirade targeting a South Asian employee at a local Tim Hortons earlier this month.

Footage of the vicious, racist and misogynistic verbal attack on West Pender Street was filmed by another customer Sunday and posted online on Tuesday. In the video, a white man can be heard swearing at a female staffer, shouting at her to be quiet, and calling her “scum.”

He makes other profoundly offensive, racialized and sexualized comments targeting female staff at the shop. The customer who filmed the incident said he did not intervene because he feared for his safety at the time. Global News reporter Christa Dao reports.
