Have to be toting heat if you want a Big Mac.

A dispute that began in the drive-thru of a Florida McDonald's over lengthy wait times ended inside the restaurant with a man shot in the neck

The store employee allegedly fired the gun during a struggle for the weapon after the staff's safety was threatened by two customers who were unhappy with the wait, per police

“They threatened to attack the man who just told them, ‘We’re busy, we can’t take anymore orders,’ and he did that because the manager told him to,” Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said, calling the situation “a McMess”

In the video, Judd claims that Soto was acting in self-defense. “And as they try to grab his gun, [Soto] pulls the trigger, and he shoots Peter Story in the neck,” Judd said, alongside video surveillance that allegedly showed the two men struggling over control of the firearm. “It’s a blessing that it was a very minor wound, but you know what? When you start shooting McGuns, you get people’s McAttention,” Judd said.

The sheriff said after Story and Jones allegedly fled the scene because of Story’s injury, Soto became “McScared,” picked up the shell casings and fled the scene as well. Soto was charged with tampering with evidence, which is a felony. Jones and Story were charged with trespass after warning and disorderly conduct.



quote:

"He has a right to stand his ground and protect himself, and these guys are threatening to do violence after they’ve already threatened on the outside of the store and came inside," Judd said in his statement.

"They created a well-found fear in him and the store manager. It was just a McMess, but we’ll sort it out because we are McGood at investigating McCrime."

"Florida" McDonald's
You sure this isn't AI?
If you haven't noticed in the last few months AI has been profiting handsomely off the "Florida Man" & "Florida Woman" rage.
It's all fake stories designed to attract the room temperature IQ folks to start "Clicking" and "Sharing" and then everyone ends up looking at those adds which translates into "Big Dollas"
Maybe your work for an AI advertising firm?

Being disrespected is absolutely a justifiable reason to kill someone right? Obviously ruining your life become someone said something to you, you didn't like is 100% logical.
