A 28-year-old man was stabbed to death at an Oxon Hill Popeyes after an altercation apparently involving the restaurant's popular chicken sandwich, which is recently back on the menu after a hiatus.
An argument between two men started inside the Popeyes at 6247 Livingston Rd. in Maryland, reportedly while the victim was in line for the sandwich, then spilled out into the street, where the victim was stabbed.
Investigators believe the argument arose over Davis cutting in line .
"... it's something we have to question in terms of how we're interacting with one another as a society, is how does a confrontation over cutting line lead to a death," Chief Hank Stawinski said at a Tuesday afternoon press conference.

Crack Chicken.
Was that a Kirk Scharfenberg bit of humor, too? /”Mush from the Wimp”
Cutting in line. Death penalty. Yeah, I can see that. /sarc
“It really saddens me that our society has come to this over a DAMN CHICKEN SANDWICH!!! I mean REALLY???”
No, society has not come to this. A certain element of society has, and that element has been doing it for at least 50 years.
Not that uncommon.
We had a dead guy at an all night chicken joint dead on the ground and people wer stepping over him to pick up their orders until the cops showed up. Nobody knows who got the dead guy’s chicken but it must have been good.
Settle down, fried chicken is the lifeblood of some ethnic communities. Best you learn that now before you are attacked or worse at your local all night chicken and waffle joint.
Never would have happened at Chick Fil-A. Just sayin.
Ban and confiscate all chicken sandwiches.

If this guy had simply had the decency to wait his turn, he’d be alive today.
Not that it excuses or mitigates the stabber’s behavior, by any means, but the situation was completely preventable.
I happened to be driving past a Popeyes yesterday and thought I’d go ahead and try one.
First, the employees in that store have clearly had enough. I waited in the drive-thru line, which you couldn’t escape once you entered it. It took over a half hour just for about 5 cars. I finally got up to the microphone and there was a big sign saying “Cash only. Management”
I placed my order (a 12 piece meal, and one chicken sandwich), and then drove around, and waited, and waited some more. The store looked like a war zone inside. The employees were sitting down just to take a break. Clearly, this sandwich is driving insane amounts of business into the store.
The girl eventually handed me my meal, and just before driving off, I checked it and found that they had....shorted me the chicken sandwich. I told them, and they made me wait a few more minutes before finally giving me my sandwich.
It was delicious - a totally different experience than what you get from Chik-Fil-A, but really delicious in its own way. The chicken is MUCH crunchier on the outside, but is cooked perfectly, and the bun is just right. That said, I don’t think I’d switch to this over Chick-Fil-A if I had a choice between the two, but this Popeyes sandwich is the real deal.
OMG they have ALL NIGHT chicken places in these communities REALLY??? Hope the staff members are packing heat!!! LOL, LOL, hope to hell they are not gun free zones!!!
Where I live, Popeye’s is solely populated by thugs and hoodrats.
Decent folk go to Chick-fil-A.
Oxen Hill area has been a mini-Baltimore for many years... Stabbings usually get no press in that part of Mogadishu... You can get stabbed or shot for blowing your nose near someone...
I love Popeyes. It’s frequented by black and white where we live and in previous places we’ve lived.

Back in the fabulous 80’s I saw a TV interview with a guy who cut a line at some event in Brooklyn. The other guy shot him in the leg. The guy who got shot was very understanding. He said it was his fault and thought it was reasonable that the guy shot him in the leg.
So police are saying justifiable homicide then?
