“A Merrill Lynch financial adviser was arrested after being caught on camera hurling racist abuse and throwing a drink at the staff of a smoothie store in Connecticut.

James Iannazzo, 48, ordered a smoothie from a Robeks smoothie shop outlet for his son, who has a peanut allergy. According to the Fairfield police department, he ordered a drink without peanut butter but did not mention his son’s allergy.

After Mr Iannazzo’s son suffered an allergic reaction and was “transported to an area hospital,” he returned to the shop.

In a video of the incident, which garnered 16 million views on TikTok prior to being removed from the platform on Sunday, he can be seen repeatedly demanding to know who made the drink.”
