The owner of Fyfe restaurant, John Mountain, has confirmed that he will be pressing charges against a notorious group of animal rights activists who targeted his establishment. The incident occurred on Saturday night when activist Tash Peterson and her band of vegan activists stormed the restaurant. Tempers quickly flared as the protesters played footage of animal slaughter and made loud pig screeching noises through a megaphone.
Mountain confronted the group multiple times, resulting in scuffles breaking out over the course of an hour. Eventually, the police were called and the restaurant staff managed to coax Mountain back inside. However, a second violent altercation ensued between Mountain and Peterson, followed by a third brawl involving several patrons.
Despite admitting to physically and verbally threatening Peterson’s partner, Jack Higgs, Mountain showed no remorse for his actions. He even stated that he would threaten Higgs every day of the week in order to protect his customers. In response, Peterson filed an assault report against Mountain when the police arrived to arrest her.
This is not the first time Peterson has protested at Fyfe. On June 30, she and her group stormed inside the restaurant before being forcibly removed by Mountain and his staff. Peterson claimed to have been left with cuts and bruises from that confrontation.
The ongoing feud between Mountain and Peterson began in June when the restaurant owner banned vegans from his establishment after receiving a negative review from a plant-based eater. The ban, which Mountain announced on the restaurant’s Facebook page, cited mental health reasons for the exclusion. Peterson, Perth’s most controversial vegan activist, took notice and decided to take action.
