A shocking video has emerged from China of a customer throwing boiling soup over a pregnant waitress in a restaurant.<br /><br />The CCTV footage, captured in late July in Heilongjiang Province, shows the pair arguing before the customer can be seen grabbing at boiling pots of soup - throwing liquid straight into her face.<br /> <br />According to local reports the waitress Dong Xiaomeng first got into an altercation with the customer after she bizarrely tried to go through drink cartons removing the straws from them.<br /> <br />The waitress was six months pregnant at the time of the incident but thankfully escaped with only minor burns. The two are reported to have settled a legal case over the incident this month.
