This comes just days after a Mexican-American woman was arrested in Texas for a racial attack on four Indian-American women.

The eight-minute video Jayaram uploaded to Twitter and YouTube shows Singh calling Jayaram names and even mocking him for ordering a bean burrito.?

?Jayaram stated that the video he uploaded only included the final 8 minutes of the 15-minute racial attack.

"Hey, pick up your bean burrito and leave. You're a vegetarian, right? " You don't eat beef," he could be heard screaming in the video before announcing loudly that he wanted a beef burrito.

Additionally, Singh condemns Jayaram for not wearing socks at one point, stating,

"Maybe wear some socks. Nobody wants to see your ugly a** feet. You're disgusting. You people are f***ing ugly. You're disgusting and nasty. You're a disgusting dog, seriously."

He then starts spitting at Jayaram before continuing with his rant.

Singh, who identified himself as Indian in a Daily Mail article, "Asian/Indian," was also heard saying in the video: "B****, this ain't India! You f***ed India up, and now you're f***ing America up."

Jayaram expressed his gratitude for the police's assistance on Twitter and said the man had even spit on the counter where the food was being served.

"The part that sucked was that the abuser spits on the counter where food was being served, and despite pointing that out, the Taco Bell employees continued serving the food on it," he tweeted.

According to reports, Singh was charged with a hate crime in violation of civil rights, assault, and disturbing the peace by offensive language, the police said.

Taco Bell, meanwhile, released a statement stating that the company is aware of the situation. Condemning the behavior in the video, "troubling, upsetting, and inconsistent with the brand's inclusive values to respect and welcome customers of all backgrounds."

In a similar incident last week, a Mexica-American woman was for hitting four Indian-American women in a suburban Dallas parking lot. Esmeralda Upton, 58, was charged with a misdemeanor, assault, and terroristic threat.?

In a viral video showing her attacking a group of Indian-American women, Upton is heard yelling at the women and demanding them to return to India.
