Things went wrong at the Kika branch in Linz on Friday afternoon. A video shows an angry customer at the bankrupt furniture store struggling with a security guard and ripping his glasses off his face. The bankruptcy has put nerves on edge.
Wild shouting in front of the exit of the kika in Linz-Urfahr: a customer and a security guard jostle, literally fighting over a product they are both pulling. Until the customer panics and rips the security guard’s glasses off his face. The “Krone” received a video of the shocking incident.
Dispute about product
According to the first information, the dispute on Friday afternoon was probably about the bankruptcy of the furniture store: a customer allegedly paid something before the bankruptcy, but received nothing afterwards. So it is said that she simply took something and brought something as a “replacement”.
Security in all branches
In many of the 17 kika/Leiner branches throughout Austria, nerves are on edge. Due to the many angry customers, the bankrupt furniture chain has hired security staff in all stores.
Consumer advocates advise caution. Because the staff cannot do anything about it, on the contrary: as a result of the bankruptcy, the employees themselves lose their jobs.
