re: McDonald's Employee Shoots Man in the Neck After Complaints About Wait Time in Drive-Thru

It seems like manager should have called cops much earlier, and instead the employee goes to back and gets a gun and gets aggressive. There needs to be some clarification on some items before I would view Soto as completely innocent on the shooting/assault. The two shits that came in are definitely in the wrong.

They charged Soto with tampering with evidence for picking up his casing. Not sure if he was trying to hide it from cops or just picked it up out of habit and just being charged for moving it.

The two then entered the store and got into a verbal confrontation with Soto and had to be separated by the store manager.

During the physical altercation, Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd says that one of the men mentions having a "switch" and a "30-clip."

That is when Soto grabbed a gun from the back of the store and pointed it at Story and Jones.

Surveillance video shows Soto advancing on Jones and pushing him before turning toward Story. A physical struggle happened and the gun discharged.

… After the incident, Soto collected the shell casing on the floor and told an employee that "it belonged to him."

…Soto was charged with tampering with physical evidence.
