Is there a word for “to be physically removed from” a public place, involuntarily?

Multi tool use
I'm looking for a single word that means to be "physically removed from".
Imagine someone is being annoying in a public place, and refuses to leave when asked, so he is physically removed from the building. I'm looking for a single word.
Some of the ideas I had for words that may fit in are
Removed
The beggar was removed from the restaurant.
I don't think this would work, because I want emphasis on that the beggar was taken and tossed out.
Thrown
The beggar was thrown from the restaurant.
This one is alright, but I'm looking for something even more specific. Both of those words were what I could think of. I'm not too sure if there even is anything that fits better than "thrown", but I'm hoping there is an alternative.

The question could use more context. The appropriate word would depend on the manner of removal, such as whether force, violence, or the law was involved.

I don't know if a single word will cut it, given people's affinity for figurative language. Getting "thrown" out is about as clear as it gets that you were physically thrown out, but this is normally used and interpreted figuratively.

Eject
verb (used with object)
- to drive or force out; expel, as from a place or position:
The police ejected the hecklers from the meeting.
Synonyms: oust, remove, drive out, cast out, throw out.
(Dictionary.com)
I think this word works best, since under the entry's example uses, is a usage of the word eject in the removal of someone from a hotel.
Hotels can deny entry, gyms can deny access, and restaurants can eject you without consequence.

I always think of ejection as a means of recovering coins from a vending machine, or the automatic process of shooting a pilot out of a crippled aircraft - ejector seat. These have given the word mechanical connotations, which in an earlier age would not have been there. So when anyone talks of ejecting someone from a restaurant I sort of imagine them flying up through a hole in the ceiling!

Evicted, I believe does it, and is probably the word I would use for someone removed against their will. It could include both an instance of physical force being used, or one in which the intruder was told in no uncertain terms to leave, but with a clear implication that their failure to do so would result either in the police being called, or their being physically removed.
In the UK there is no criminal law against trespass, and the only remedy the law provides to a land/property owner is the use of "reasonable force" to remove someone who has refused to go when asked.
However, one problem with eviction is that it is usually associated with legal eviction e.g. of tenants from a property they have legally occupied.
Signage TRESPASSERS WILL BE PROSECUTED should more accurately state, TRESPASSERS WILL BE SUED. Never seen any such sign in UK. With one or two exceptions under statutory or bylaws, trespass to land or property is not criminal offence but a civil tort actionable in County Courts, etc. The way for any property owner, tenant or lawful occupier to involve police & sanction of criminal law is to call 999 & report trespasser's presence, a situation that might lead to the common law criminal offence of breach of the peace should tenant exercise his right to use reasonable force to eject trespasser

@Peter Point. Trespassers guilty of no other crime or tort (e.g. causing damage or nuisance) can, in England and Wales, so far as I'm aware, be neither prosecuted nor sued civilly. It simply is not an offence. In practice many instances of trespassing involve something else which is an offence e.g. breaking and entering, causing distress or nuisance etc -(or the big catch-all - "behaviour liable to cause a breach of the peace") One important exception to this is trespassing on railway property. Otherwise any notice "Trespassers will be prosecuted" is meaningless. –

Dec 1 '16 at 22:46
@PeterPoint I feel I ought to point out... you cannot just go and sit on someone's front porch all day and refuse to leave. Surely, there will be a point where you get arrested.
– The Great Duck
Dec 3 '16 at 20:28
@TheGreatDuck Yes. Although trespass is not an offence, it doesn't mean that you have a "right" to be on someone else's property. You are required to leave if asked to do so.If it was in close proximity to a residence (e.g. on the front porch) issues of stalking (which is nowadays an offence) or possibly harassment, or loitering with intent, would come into play, and you could expect the police to take an interest. But if gypsies camp on your land, the police will generally not do anything about moving them on until you have obtained an eviction order from the court.
– WS2
Dec 3 '16 at 20:34
@WS2 that is absolute hogwash. If gypsies move into your property without permission then you do not need to evict them. They never purchased or were given the right to rent the land. Therefore, they were always trespassing, period.

Verb (informal) 4. To forcibly eject.
We need to boot those troublemakers as soon as possible
The beggar was bounced from the restaurant.
Verb 9. (US, slang, dated) To eject violently, as from a room; to discharge unceremoniously, as from employment.

I like booted. I will vote this up because the participant did provide links. However, your answer will be better received if you copy the definition and include it in your answer.

Please do not simply give links. If the destination disappears, or their link structure changes, the supporting information is lost. Please include the definition in your answer (with the correct citation/reference), preferably with supporting words of your own.

This is why the person at the door is called a bouncer {they bounce people: "informal - eject (a troublemaker) forcibly from a nightclub or similar establishment."} : "a person employed by a nightclub or similar establishment to prevent troublemakers from entering or to eject them from the premises." –Google

to be thrown out
to throw someone out: expel someone unceremoniously from a place, organization, or activity: ‘His wife had thrown him out.' ‘Keane had been thrown out of the game by the umpire.'
(Oxford)
Your sentence:
The beggar was thrown out of the restaurant.
"I want emphasis on that the beggar was taken and tossed out." This expression emphasizes exactly that.
A variant of this is
to be kicked out

When used as a verb in American English, eighty-six, eighty-sixed, 86, 86ed, or 86'd, is slang for getting rid of something, ejecting someone, or refusing service
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/86_(term)
add a comment |
I think kicked out would be a good expression to imply being removed forcefully
1 [TRANSITIVE] INFORMAL to force someone to leave a place or
organization kick someone out of something: Sonia’s been kicked out of
her house.

Banish
verb (used with object)
- to expel from or relegate to a country or place by authoritative decree; condemn to exile:
He was banished to Devil's Island.
- to compel to depart; send, drive, or put away
(Dictionary.com)
This may be a slightly archaic choice of words but it is always nice to have variety.
By using the word banish, the removal of the person seems more permanent or more official.
You should also be aware that banishment is usually to somewhere, for instance:
He was banished out of the restaurant and into the cold of the night
Furthermore, banished implies that someone is removed not just temporarily but in a permanent way and it is generally from an entire area.

Maybe it's just me but the association with meaning #1 is so strong to me that it feels weird in the context the question asks about.

@Casey I agree, it doesn't fit fantastically but variety can't hurt. In the end, people come to this site for answers to similar questions to the ones on here. If this question helps out someone who is looking for a slightly more official way of saying this, then banish will help them.

To be hoicked out. From Merriam-Webster:
: to move or pull abruptly : yank
"I was hoicked out of my job"

Manhandled
could fit; from Collins:
If someone is manhandled, they are physically held or pushed, for
example when they are being taken somewhere. [be V-ed] ⇒ Foreign
journalists were manhandled by armed police, and told to leave. [V n
prep/adv] ⇒ They manhandled the old man along the corridor. [Also V n]
The beggar was manhandled out of the restaurant.

Manhandled suggests a level of physicality that may not have occurred. The answer to this question largely depends on how forcible the eviction was.

In addition, you could be "manhandled" in the restaurant without being removed, so this is more a description of the rough manner in which someone is treated during (event).

Signage TRESPASSERS WILL BE PROSECUTED should more accurately state, TRESPASSERS WILL BE SUED. Never seen any such sign in UK. With one or two exceptions under statutory or bylaws, trespass to land or property is not criminal offence but a civil tort actionable in County Courts, etc. The way for any property owner, tenant or lawful occupier to involve police & sanction of criminal law is to call 999 & report trespasser's presence, a situation that might lead to the common law criminal offence of breach of the peace should tenant exercise his right to use reasonable force to eject trespasser

@Peter Point. Trespassers guilty of no other crime or tort (e.g. causing damage or nuisance) can, in England and Wales, so far as I'm aware, be neither prosecuted nor sued civilly. It simply is not an offence. In practice many instances of trespassing involve something else which is an offence e.g. breaking and entering, causing distress or nuisance etc -(or the big catch-all - "behaviour liable to cause a breach of the peace") One important exception to this is trespassing on railway property. Otherwise any notice "Trespassers will be prosecuted" is meaningless. –

@PeterPoint I feel I ought to point out... you cannot just go and sit on someone's front porch all day and refuse to leave. Surely, there will be a point where you get arrested.

@TheGreatDuck Yes. Although trespass is not an offence, it doesn't mean that you have a "right" to be on someone else's property. You are required to leave if asked to do so.If it was in close proximity to a residence (e.g. on the front porch) issues of stalking (which is nowadays an offence) or possibly harassment, or loitering with intent, would come into play, and you could expect the police to take an interest. But if gypsies camp on your land, the police will generally not do anything about moving them on until you have obtained an eviction order from the court.

Dec 3 '16 at 20:34
@WS2 that is absolute hogwash. If gypsies move into your property without permission then you do not need to evict them. They never purchased or were given the right to rent the land. Therefore, they were always trespassing, period.

Evicted, I believe does it, and is probably the word I would use for someone removed against their will. It could include both an instance of physical force being used, or one in which the intruder was told in no uncertain terms to leave, but with a clear implication that their failure to do so would result either in the police being called, or their being physically removed.

Banish
verb (used with object)
- to expel from or relegate to a country or place by authoritative decree; condemn to exile:
He was banished to Devil's Island.
- to compel to depart; send, drive, or put away
(Dictionary.com)
This may be a slightly archaic choice of words but it is always nice to have variety.
By using the word banish, the removal of the person seems more permanent or more official.
You should also be aware that banishment is usually to somewhere, for instance:
He was banished out of the restaurant and into the cold of the night
Furthermore, banished implies that someone is removed not just temporarily but in a permanent way and it is generally from an entire area.

Maybe it's just me but the association with meaning #1 is so strong to me that it feels weird in the context the question asks about.

@Casey I agree, it doesn't fit fantastically but variety can't hurt. In the end, people come to this site for answers to similar questions to the ones on here. If this question helps out someone who is looking for a slightly more official way of saying this, then banish will help them.

- to expel from or relegate to a country or place by authoritative decree; condemn to exile:
He was banished to Devil's Island.
- to compel to depart; send, drive, or put away
(Dictionary.com)
This may be a slightly archaic choice of words but it is always nice to have variety.
By using the word banish, the removal of the person seems more permanent or more official.
You should also be aware that banishment is usually to somewhere, for instance:
He was banished out of the restaurant and into the cold of the night
Furthermore, banished implies that someone is removed not just temporarily but in a permanent way and it is generally from an entire area.

Maybe it's just me but the association with meaning #1 is so strong to me that it feels weird in the context the question asks about.

@Casey I agree, it doesn't fit fantastically but variety can't hurt. In the end, people come to this site for answers to similar questions to the ones on here. If this question helps out someone who is looking for a slightly more official way of saying this, then banish will help them.

"banished" implies not just removed once, and not just from one specific place, but permanently, and generally from an entire area.

People are banished from a kingdom, or a country, or a region, or a village. Not a restaurant, or City Hall.

Manhandled
could fit; from Collins:
If someone is manhandled, they are physically held or pushed, for
example when they are being taken somewhere. [be V-ed] ⇒ Foreign
journalists were manhandled by armed police, and told to leave. [V n
prep/adv] ⇒ They manhandled the old man along the corridor. [Also V n]
The beggar was manhandled out of the restaurant.

Manhandled suggests a level of physicality that may not have occurred. The answer to this question largely depends on how forcible the eviction was.

In addition, you could be "manhandled" in the restaurant without being removed, so this is more a description of the rough manner in which someone is treated during (event).

What is your objection to "The beggar was physically removed from the restaurant"? All of the synonyms suggested in comments and answers seem more vague and less specific.

The question could use more context. The appropriate word would depend on the manner of removal, such as whether force, violence, or the law was involved.

I don't know if a single word will cut it, given people's affinity for figurative language. Getting "thrown" out is about as clear as it gets that you were physically thrown out, but this is normally used and interpreted figuratively.
