New York Daily News reports:

A Texas Popeyes owner is defending his team after several workers were caught on camera pummeling four female customers in a wild brawl.

Vedo Kemraj told KSAT that his staff jumped into the altercation to defend their pregnant general manager, who was allegedly being kicked in the stomach during the fight.

“If you see someone is pregnant, you’re not going to hit them,” Kemraj said. “I don’t get that.”

The general manager, whose identity was not released, is seven-and-a-half months pregnant and had to be taken to the hospital after the fight. Kemraj said the manager and the baby are expected to be OK and the manager had already asked about returning to work.

According to the outlet, the drama started when four girls, believed to be students at Texas State University, came through the drive-thru Tuesday night to order four separate meals.
