The employee reported that the manager then called her niece and told her to come to the restaurant to "beat up" the employee. The employee says the niece showed up at the restaurant and started yelling at her. A witness says she slid a tray across the counter in an attempt to hit her, then attempted to come behind the counter to hit her.
