Youtube Video Shows Guy Getting Knocked Out Cold, Allegedly at Northeast Philly Wawa
Published:
Crossing Broad was alerted to this Youtube video, which shows a guy getting clean knocked out at an undisclosed Wawa location.
According to the person who uploaded the clip, this took place at the store across from Dunphy Ford, which is on Frankford Avenue. I’m 95% sure that’s part of the Mayfair neighborhood, but it could be Tacony. Not entirely clear where the border is between those two areas. (EDIT – I am informed that this is actually Holmesburg)
The uploader posted the following details:
“Guy comes into Wawa pointing a gun at an employee saying he isn’t afraid to die today. Security guard was able to get the gun away, kicked it away from him, looked like a fake gun. He was bleeding in his mouth spitting on people and food still running his mouth………”Unlike you I got a fucking brain Bitch”……”Say that again, what you say?” Night night
Cops came in right after locked shit talker/fake gun guy up. All I wanted was a hoagie and a damn drink haha”
Here’s the clip:

There’s a lot to process here. Gun just laying on the ground (reportedly fake, with an orange cap on the end). The bag of chips sliding off the guy at the end, while he lays there, unconscious. The security guard casually strolling through the shot.
In the video comments section, the uploader shared a few more details while answering questions:
“Guy came in pointing a gun, fake gun find out (sic) at an employee. Security guard had him down kicked the gun away. He stood up still arguing was bleeding out of his mouth spitting on people still reaching in his shorts like he had another gun. Than (sic) the knockout.”
…
Before the video he was pushing girls and guys around spitting blood on people. He finally settled down than (sic) started again. Beginning of the video the guy was spitting on food. He deserved what came to him. He came to….than (sic) started throwing food and kicking at the cops. They finally were able to take him away”
We’ve got several emails and phone calls out in an attempt to confirm these details and see what else we can get on the record. Will update ASAP.
Also, the uploader says after the incident he was able to secure his hoagie and Pure Leaf Iced Tea, lemon flavor.
