Wendy’s Customer Pulls Gun on Drive-Thru Worker
Another drive-thru related incident occurred at a Wendys in Georgia, where a customer was caught on surveillance video, pulling a gun on drive-thru employee.
Law enforcement officials said that the woman was driving a car with an adult passenger and several children in the backseat when she brandished the firearm around 11:15 p.m. on March 2.
Officials told Fox 5 the woman was upset because she ordered a junior meal for the children but wasn’t satisfied with the order or wait time.
She brought out the gun, demanding a refund.
“If the gun would have been fired it could have harmed the clerk at the window, subsequent employees or any customers that could have been in the restaurant as well,” said Henry County Police Department Sgt. John Davis.
Investigators said the clerk did well keeping her cool. They’ve put up wanted posters for the woman and asked anyone with information to call the police.
