78-year-old man punched in face over Nutella samples at Costco

A 78-year-old Costco shopper in Burbank, Calif., allegedly was punched in the face over the weekend after getting into an argument with another customer taking samples of Nutella waffles from a cart, KTLA reported.

Derrick Gharabighi, 24, of Burbank took multiple samples when the older man told him to take only one, police said. 

Gharabighi is accused of punching the older man in the face. Police said the unidentified 78-year-old man was hospitalized with swelling and a one-inch cut. 

Gharabighi will appear in court later this week after being arrested on suspicion of elder abuse.
