The passenger then told the vendor that he dropped something, and while the vendor was looking down, the passenger threw an egg at him and laughed as the car drove away.
The LASD called the incident "disgusting" and continued to urge people to stay at home as much as possible during this pandemic.
The motive for the attack is unclear.
Anyone with information is asked to reach out to authorities.
