Two men were arrested after attacking Target employees in Los Angeles who confronted them about not wearing face masks in the store, police said.
Phillip Hamilton, 31, and Paul Hamilton, 29, entered the store around 10:20 a.m. without masks on, police said. Video of the incident allegedly shows them being escorted out by employees after they refused to wear the protective gear.
Police released the surveillance footage on Monday, though the actual incident happened on May 1.
While security guard attempted to escort them out of the store, one suspect turned and punched the security guard as they approached the exit, the video shows.  Police said the attack happened "suddenly without provocation."
During the fight, the security guard suffered a broken arm while scuffling with the suspect on the ground.
The second suspect also joined in the brawl, struggling with two other Target employees as they tried to restrain him.
Medics took the security guard to a hospital to be treated for his injuries.
