When Williams came into the restaurant, Oliveira said he told the comedian and his group of friends that there would be a wait, but that he would try to get them seating as quickly as possible. However, according to Oliveira, Williams flew into a rage and, “without provocation” threw a glass salt shaker at his head, hitting him in his face.
