Gay man assaulted in Miami Beach Whopper Bar for kissing his boyfriend
- 8 years ago
MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA — A vacation for a gay couple turned into a nightmare on Mar. 14 when a man assaulted one of them for kissing the other in a fast food restaurant.
Jordan Schaeffer and his boyfriend, Eric Danko, were out late that night when they stopped into a Burger King Whopper Bar late one night. Inside the restaurant, the couple exchanged a kiss among a crowd of people. Schaeffer says that's when one intoxicated man took exception to their public display of affection, calling them "faggots" and yelling other profanities at them.
Before they knew what was happening, the drunk man allegedly attacked Schaeffer, grabbing him by the waist and body slamming him to the ground. As Schaeffer tried to defend himself, his assailant reportedly wrapped his legs around Schaeffer's neck in an MMA-style submission hold.
The incident was caught on this security camera. In the grainy video, the takedown can be seen, as bystanders look on. The two tangle on the ground for roughly a minute, but as Schaeffer's partner and others try to step in to break up the fight, a man in white shirt prevents them from doing so, shoving them away.
The fight ended with the yet-to-be identified attacker and his accomplice storming out of the Burger King, and Jordan Schaeffer getting checked out in the emergency room.
Now back home in Los Angeles, the 25-year-old says it's not his busted lip or swollen face that hurts most, but the emotional trauma he's experiencing due to the incident.
