A witness at the scene reported that an altercation broke out and resulted in Foxx being visibly hurt. They told TMZ that customers at another table were being rude and vulgar to Jamie Foxx and his company, and when he asked them to stop, being that his family was present, someone at the table allegedly threw the glass that hit him in the face.
