VIDEO: Ca. store clerk injured in food fight with angry customers

CONCORD, CA (KTRK) -- Police are hoping to capture two women accused of assaulting a store clerk with assorted food and a soda bottle in California.

The incident happened November 20 at a 7-Eleven store in Concord when the clerk refused to sell cigars to the women without an ID, reports KRON-TV.

The women reportedly became angry and left the store to get a male friend from their car.

The three returned and police say a heated argument ensued. Surveillance cameras were rolling as the situation escalated into a food fight.

At one point, the clerk was struck in the head with a bottle of orange soda.

The victim was hospitalized with a minor head injury.

Police hope the release of the surveillance footage will lead to their arrest.
