A disturbing incident of workplace violence has been reported at the Navet veterinary clinic in Durango, Mexico, where staff members were assaulted following the death of a patient.
Dr Emmanuel Nava, the veterinarian who operates the clinic located on Alberto Terrones Street, has come forward with allegations of intimidation and physical assault against his team.
According to Dr Nava's account, the incident began when a woman brought her dog to the clinic seeking a second opinion for the pet's respiratory distress. Despite the medical team's efforts, the animal died while at the facility.
CCTV camera footage, which has since gone viral on social media, captured the aftermath of the pet's death. In the video, the distraught owner can be seen grabbing a female veterinarian by the hair and violently pulling her. Male staff members quickly intervened to separate the two and protect their colleague from further harm.
