Thief River Falls Worker Cited After Pizza Hut Clash<\/h2>\n

Thief River Falls<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 A local man has been cited after an alleged workplace dispute at Pizza Hut.<\/p>\n

Police received the disorderly conduct report at 10:23 a.m. on July 14.<\/p>\n

Mason Bradley Laidley, 22, of Thief River Falls, was cited for disorderly conduct.<\/p>\n

The citation was filed on July 22.<\/p>\n

Argument Reported Inside Restaurant<\/h2>\n

According to the citation, Laidley allegedly yelled at a coworker during the dispute.<\/p>\n

He also allegedly pushed the coworker several times.<\/p>\n

Laidley told authorities the conflict started because the coworker was not doing his job.<\/p>\n

He said he told the coworker to leave the restaurant and go home.<\/p>\n

However, the coworker did not leave, according to Laidley\u2019s account.<\/p>\n

Laidley said he then pushed the man and again ordered him to leave.<\/p>\n

Money Bag Allegedly Thrown Outside<\/h2>\n

The citation also describes an incident involving a money bag.<\/p>\n

Laidley allegedly took the bag from the coworker and threw it outside.<\/p>\n

The coworker then went outside to retrieve the bag.<\/p>\n

Laidley allegedly locked the restaurant door after the coworker stepped outside.<\/p>\n

The provided account does not explain what happened after the door was locked.<\/p>\n

It does not say whether the coworker later returned inside.<\/p>\n

No details were provided about later contact between the two men.<\/p>\n

No injuries were listed in the information provided with the citation.<\/p>\n

The report also did not describe any property damage.<\/p>\n

Citation Is Not a Conviction<\/h2>\n

A citation begins a court process and does not prove guilt.<\/p>\n

Laidley is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n

The available information does not list a scheduled court hearing.<\/p>\n

Further case information may appear through Minnesota Court Records Online<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Court records can change as new filings and hearing information are added.<\/p>\n
