SYRACUSE, NEW YORK — Karma has finally come to two Dunkin' Donuts employees who were caught on camera being extra cruel to a homeless man.<br /><br />Syracuse.com reports that the incident happened at a Dunkin' outlet in Syracuse, New York on Sunday night.<br /><br />Jeremy Dufresne had come in to charge his phone and says he put his head down for just a minute when a worker later identified as Shakeen Robbins suddenly dumped a pitcher of cold water on him.<br /><br />Another employee who had been filming the whole thing can be heard laughing as Dufresne hurriedly stands up and grabs his phone.<br /><br />On camera, Robbins tells the man to stop sleeping in the store and to get out, as the clip ends with more laughing from the other staff member.<br /><br />Dufresne is schizophrenic and says he lives outside because he prefers it. He hadn't bothered anyone at the store, and claims the other workers there have been nice to him.<br /><br />The now-viral video has earned the ire of netizens and the local community, who staged a small protest outside the store on Monday. A GoFundMe page set up to help Dufresne and his family has now raised over $21,000 — way more than its initial $150 goal.<br /><br />Dunkin' Donuts has since fired the two employees involved in the incident, and say they'll be contacting Dufresne to apologize.<br /><br />Robbins has also come out publicly to say he regrets his actions and wants to make amends.
