Business owner hitting employee.?

My mom works at a restaurant in downtown Nashville. The owner hired a homeless man as the dishwasher a few years ago and is currently paying him only 300$ per month. (under the table) The man is still homeless, sleeping outside of the irestaurant at night back by the dumpster. Recently, my mom, as well as other workers and customers, have witnessed the owner hitting/slapping the dishwasher. It has gotten to the point that he was hit 5 times in a row last night. My mom tried to step in but was stopped by the manager. They claim the dishwasher came in late and was working too slow. We both feel like we need to contact somebody about what has happened, but have no idea who to call. It is a privately owned restaurant.Business owner hitting employee.?
This is assault, a police matter. That's pretty simple.



You should know that no law protects your job if the owner finds out who made the report.
Catch the owner in a dark alley and pummel him...



Seriously. He is using the fact that the worker is illegal to break the law. It's blackmail; that's illegal, too. I'd simply file A %26amp; B against the owner, anonymously. It doesn't matter What the person's citizenship is, it isn't legal in the US.Business owner hitting employee.?
That is called assault and battery and should be reported to the police, and NOW!
That is PURE ABUSE!

Please report this bully owner to the police immediately....
