DUNEDIN, Florida — Authorities say a Dunedin man has been arrested after robbing a fast-food restaurant through a drive-through window.

Jack St. Clair Burris, 33, faces charges of robbery with a weapon and aggravated assault. He was being held in Pinellas County jail on $55,000 bond.

According to a news release, Burris drove up to the McDonald's window on Friday night, asked for change, then threatened an employee with a broken beer bottle. He took money out of the restaurant's cash register as the employee backed away.

Burris was arrested Saturday morning and made a court appearance Sunday morning.

I worked at a Jack In The Box in Austin about a million years ago when I was going to school. Late one night, a drunk guy walked up to the drive through window, pulled out a large kitchen knife, and announced a robbery. The window was on a spring, so I let it close and locked it.

He started pounding on the glass and yelling, “You can’t do that!”

I was laughing so hard that a coworker had to reach around me to get the phone and call the police. The cops never caught the guy.

in this day and age of pc-ness, the company would be liable for a lawsuit from the criminal.

That is what I was thinking.

Why not just close the window?
