Woman Arrested For Assaulting Man Wearing MAGA Hat On Cape Cod

(Boston 25 News)

FALMOUTH, Mass. - A woman on Cape Cod is facing charges for assaulting a man wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat.

Rosiane Santos, 41, of Falmouth was charged with disorderly conduct and assault and battery.

Santos told police she was upset the man was wearing the hat in a Mexican restaurant.

The man wearing the hat, 23-year-old Bryton Turner of Mashpee, was so annoyed with the woman's antics that he pulled out his phone and started recording her.

The incident occurred last Friday at the "Casa Vallarta" Mexican restaurant in Falmouth.

Turner says he was minding his own business, when Santos started yelling at him because of his hat, which bears the theme that President Donald Trump campaigned on.

The woman is seen walking behind him and hitting his hat off his head.

When asked if Turner did anything to provoke Santos, bartender Geo Macarao said, "No, no he just walked in and ordered his food."
