Man Arrested for Beating Up Customer Who Took Too Long in the Bathroom

When you gotta go, you gotta go. A Japanese man needed to use the washroom so badly that he decided to resort to violence in order to use the John.

According to reports, Hayato Baba was arrested in Funabashi, Japan, because he really had to use a washroom. The man allegedly beat up a 37-year-old man and stole his wallet outside a convenience store because he said the man was taking too long to get out of the toilet.

The suspect was identified as a construction worker from Narashino who admitted to punching the victim twice in the face and stealing his wallet, which contained around $800. All of that just for some payback because he needed to use the bathroom.

Police reported that the victim suffered minor injuries to his face. Baba claimed that the wallet fell out after he attacked the man and he had not planned to also steal his money. You might as well treat yourself after injuring someone else.

It seems like using the toilet might just bring out the worst in people.
