Chick-Fil-A Customer Starts All-Out Brawl Over Waffle Fries (cane and small hatchet involved)
Eater.com ^ | 12/30/2015 | Staff

Posted on 01/02/2016 5:12:15 PM PST by simpson96

Chick-fil-A is no place to play chicken. Earlier this week, a drive-thru customer at a Chick-fil-A location in Aiken, S.C. started a ruckus after receiving his order, according to the Aiken Standard. Dissatisfied at the temperature or quality of his waffle fries, he ran over to a drive-thru employee and threw the fries in the worker's face.

When a manager rushed out to address the assault, the irate customer grabbed a cane from his car and began hitting her with it. In what sounds like a scene from a bizarre David Lynch flick, passers-by and other customers came to the manager's rescue. One produced a small hatchet and threw it at the attacker. It struck him in the back, but this did not stop him from continuing to punch the manager in the face. Witnesses had to pull him off of her.

When police arrived at the scene, the man was bleeding and had been restrained "by several witnesses." The manager had bruises on her body and face, but was treated and has since been released from the hospital. She is back at work. Her attacker, meanwhile, is still undergoing treatment at Georgia Regents University.

The attacker was a mental patient who had been off his meds.

ah, plenty of crazy white folk out there too :)

if it was a gang shooting, THEN I wouldn’t have to look.

but you’re probably right in guessing who it was.

Chick Fil A in NYC has line going out the door all the time. I guess it’s religious beliefs aren’t more important than a good meal lol.

NYC isn’t exactly known for it’s conservative values.

Staten Island is though :)

There seems to be more accounts of bystanders jumping in. I like the hatchet. Had it only stuck.

Great shot.

Couldn't find one of the attacker, did find one of the other employees who said the perp looked like Donald Trump...

Reads to me like they published the Chick-Fil-A story for a seamless segue to the next story down page disparaging guns.

No photographs, or description of the perp, and questions remain unanswered, but they sure let guns have it in the next article.

The chicken involves gun play. Great place! Gays never had a chance.

According to the original source, the Aiken Standard, the perp’s wife said he suffers from schizophrenia and had not been taking his medication.
