TORONTO — Police say they're looking for a plate-slinging patron after a brawl broke out at a Chinatown restaurant early Saturday.

The fight — caught on video and uploaded to YouTube — apparently started at around 3:30 a.m. over seating space at the crowded Pho Xe Lua, a Vietnamese eatery.

At least a half-dozen patrons, some dressed in Halloween costumes, were involved in the tussle. A plate was launched into the air and struck a restaurant employee in the head.

"During the altercation, a woman in her 20s was struck in the face and sustained injuries which required medical attention." police said in a release.

The video received more than 250,000 views as of Monday morning.

The suspect is described as an Asian man, between 20 and 25 years old. He stands roughly 5-foot-8 to 5-foot-9 and has a muscular build with multicolored tattoos on his left bicep. He was clean-shaven, with short black hair, which was shaved on both sides. He was wearing a "SWAT" costume vest with holster, tight black v-neck T-shirt and black pants.


Anyone with information is asked to contact police.
