A disturbing incident involving a Washington, D.C. coffee shop owner has gone viral after he was filmed yelling racist remarks at a Spanish-speaking Uber Eats driver.
The video, shared on TikTok, captures Greg Harris, the shop owner, angrily confronting driver Gregorio Amundarain, repeatedly telling him to "learn English" while mocking his inability to speak the language.

Amundarain, who remained calm throughout the ordeal, recorded the encounter as Harris got in his face, ridiculing him with gibberish. The situation escalated further when Harris aggressively shoved a paper bag into the driver’s chest.
Amundarain later filed a police report, alleging discrimination. Law enforcement is now investigating the incident as a possible hate crime and simple assault. The video has sparked significant backlash online, with many condemning Harris' behavior.
