The belligerent drunk demanding some “fucking bacon jalapeño mac and cheese” is Luke Gatti, a 19-year-old UConn student who was also arrested for drunk and disorderly conduct two weeks ago.

Gatti, clad in sweatpants paired with sandals and socks, tells the manager “you’re gonna look like a fuckin’ tool”, when he realizes the incident was being filmed.
‘I was just trying to get f****** food, ‘ he continues to insist. Instead, he stayed conscious long enough to stand up, spit on a nearby employee, and get himself marched right out the door.
Police were summoned by a 911 caller who reported that a male was refusing to leave the Union Street Market and that the “disturbance had now become physical”. “Police took Gatti into custody and learned through statements that Gatti had been refused service due to drinking alcohol in the market”.
Police said Gatti was physically and verbally abusive to the employees and was being detained when the officer arrived.
The Bayville, New York, native was arrested twice last September when he was a student at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst.
This isn’t Gotti’s first tango with the police.
As a fitting update, it turns out this kid is no stranger to disorderly conduct.

“Generally speaking, any UConn student found to have violated the provisions of the Student Code may face penalties imposed by the Division of Student Affairs that range from probation to expulsion”, Reitz said. In 2014, Gotti was arrested after calling a cop a “n*gger”, and again later in the year for assault and battery against a different police officer.
