Customer Stabbed Over Botched Latte Order At Starbucks

PHILADELPHIA (CBS)--A customer is stabbed at an Illinois Starbucks over a wrong coffee order.

Police say a man "verbally abused" a barista over his botched latte order.

That's when another man intervened and told him to "stop being a jerk."

Police say it got physical and the angry customer pulled out a knife, cutting the man who got involved.

A nearby officer responded and separated the two men.

Paramedics treated both at the scene for minor injuries.

Police say neither man wanted to pursue charges, so none were filed.
