Police said the man left his cup on the counter and began to leave, but the woman continued to argue with the clerk and then ran out after throwing the hot drink at the clerk.

Investigators said the man and woman were identified from security footage. The 25-year-old man was arrested on outstanding warrants and told officers he only knew the woman casually. However, police said the pair have a child together and have been involved in domestic violence calls.
