Understandably, other patrons started freaking out.

"Get this thing out! You know, everyone's like eating so customers are yelling, 'Get this thing out! Are you crazy,'" Jessie Davaadorj, a server at the sushi restaurant, told KCBS-TV.

Hiroshi Motohashi was eventually arrested and charged with suspicion of making criminal threats, according to KTLA.

It also turns out, he is in the exotic animals business, according to the LA Times.
