Pinkberry Founder Beats Homeless Man

The co-owner and co-founder of Pinkberry, Young Lee, has been alleged of chasing after a homeless man and beating him with a tire iron. Pinkberry is a frozen yogurt dessert chain.

The Los Angeles Police Department claims in June, Lee was sitting at a red light on the Hollywood Freeway when a homeless man approached him for money. Lee is a former kickboxer, who noticed a sexually explicit tattoo on the homeless man. Lee was so upset at seeing the tattoo that he and the passenger in his car chased the homeless man until they caught up with him. Lee then supposedly beat the snot out of the man. Following an investigation into the issue, Lee was arrested this week upon his return to Los Angeles from South Korea.

There is something interesting about this case though, no one will explain the tattoo on the homeless man’s body that offended Lee. What kind of tattoo could the man have had that upset Lee so much? Lee has been charged with assault with a deadly weapon and allegedly did ‘great bodily harm’ to the man.

If you have any guesses as to what the tattoo was on the man’s body that upset Lee, be our guest and leave your ideas in the comments section below.
