'Dine and dash' couple 'attack' restaurant staff - in dispute over bill

This shocking footage shows an alleged attack on restaurant staff - in a dispute over paying a bill.

CCTV footage shows a man and a woman fighting workers at La Bella Vista in St Leonards-on-Sea, near Hastings in East Sussex last weekend.

A man in a red top and a woman in a black top can be seen in a confrontation with staff, who then try to get them to leave.

As they exit she can be seen throwing glasses and cutlery before removing a tabletop and smashing it on the floor.

Emilia Esposito, administration manager at the Italian restaurant, told SWNS about the ordeal today (Friday).
