    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. Commented Dec 1, 2016 at 17:00

    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. Commented Dec 1, 2016 at 18:30
