4 people were arrested at a New York City Applebee's during a protest of the city's vaccine mandate, which requires proof of vaccination to dine in

Four people protesting at a New York City Applebee's outlet over its vaccine mandate were arrested Wednesday night.

The Applebee's is in the same Queens mall where six anti-vaxxers were arrested Tuesday for criminal trespass at a Cheesecake Factory.

New York City requires that patrons show proof of vaccination in order to dine in.

Four people protesting New York City's COVID-19 vaccine restaurant mandate were arrested at an Applebee's in Queens, according to police.

An NYPD spokesman told Insider that four people were taken into custody following the protests.

Applebee's did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Insider.

The Applebee's protest came a day after six people were arrested at a Cheesecake Factory located in the same mall as the Applebee's on Tuesday night. The group was asked to show proof of vaccination as required by New York's vaccine mandate rules, but refused.

Johnson told Insider that the group of anti-vaccine protesters visited several dining establishments at the Queens Center Mall on Wednesday. They staged a small protest outside the Queen's Center Mall Cheesecake Factory, where the six were arrested the previous night, before ending up at the Applebee's.
