Footage of a man wreaking havoc at a supermarket after his wife was declined service for refusing to wear a mask is going viral once again.

The incident took place in Mariupol, Ukraina, back in April, but video of the chaos was recently shared to Reddit’s PublicFreakout.

According to reports, a woman initially entered the store without a mask and attempted to purchase items. The cashier asked her to put on a mask, but she refused. Other customers requested the same, but she still refused, and ultimately left without buying anything.
The video, allegedly filmed by her son, shows her and her husband returning to the store — him armed with a hatchet.
He hides it until he reaches a specific checkout area, at which point he starts violently swinging the hatchet around and destroying equipment and countertops, as employees and customers flee.
The man runs around the front of the store for around 40 seconds, hitting everything in his path and screaming at other customers. At one point, he slips to the ground, but gets right back up and continues his rampage.
The incident was so absurd that commenters barely knew where to start.
“Smart, record yourself while committing a crime,” u/HereForBeer07 snarked.
“He almost axed himself falling,” another Redditor pointed out.
And the fact that he brought his own son in to record his rampage is certainly something else.

“Mom has no business keeping custody of the kid, if it is a minor, they brought their kid along to a crime, that’s some parenting,” wrote u/treelineghost.
The man reportedly uploaded the video to his own Facebook before deleting it, though he was still ultimately found out by authorities. An article posted back in April reports that he was arrested for hooliganism and could face 3 to 7 years in prison over the stunt.
It would have been so much easier to just wear a mask.
