Police said staff members asked a man to put on a mask when he entered Wieners Circle and attempted to order food. He refused to do so and was therefore denied service, the hot dog stand said.
He got angry and first opened the door and tried to throw snow at a Wieners Circle staff member.

The hot dog stand said it plans to release surveillance video of the incident.
We refused service to a customer who didn’t want to put on a mask and they threw a brick through our window. Security video to follow later in case someone can identify the asshole. #protectthewienerscircle pic.twitter.com/kEJ01nZPHU
