A Burbank man with an extensive criminal record faces more than 11 years in state prison if convicted in connection with allegations that he punched a 78-year-old Costco shopper following a dispute over a Nutella waffle sample.

Derrick Gharabighi, 24, was charged with one felony count of elder abuse with the special allegation that he personally inflicted great bodily injury on someone older than 70, the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office announced Tuesday afternoon.

He entered a not guilty plea at the Burbank branch of Los Angeles County Superior Court.

"Gharabighi was at a warehouse store in Burbank when he walked up to get a Nutella waffle sample," a news release from the DA's office stated. "When the elderly victim reached out, Gharabighi took all of them."

When the victim said he wanted a sample and told Gharabighi not to take so many, Gharabighi punched the older man in the face, the release said.
