A man is now facing hate crime charges after video of his rant inside a Taco Bell in Fremont went viral.
A customer recorded a man berating him with anti-Hindu slurs and other insults on Friday. Originally, police said there wasn't enough to go on for a criminal case. But on Monday, that changed.
Fremont police said they reviewed the video, and the Alameda County District Attorney's Office has filed hate crime and civil rights charges.
The suspect, Singh Tejinder, was not in custody but was ordered to appear in court.
