LEESBURG, Fla. - A Florida man got out of the car he was in and hit a McDonald's drive-thru employee in the face because he didn't receive his food fast enough, according to the Leesburg Police Department.

The victim said Sherman Lee Brown was in the passenger's seat of his girlfriend's silver Ford Focus at about 3:20 a.m. on July 30 when he started getting angry about how long they'd been in the drive-thru line. He got out of the Focus and began yelling at the occupants of the vehicle in front of his.

When the Focus got to the drive-thru window, Brown began screaming at the employee, calling her derogatory names and telling her to, "Hurry the (expletive) up," according to the report.

Police said the victim told Brown that she wouldn't serve him unless he stopped the verbal abuse, which is when he got out of the vehicle again and threatened to hit the victim.

The employee tried to close the drive-thru window, but Brown hit her in the face, knocking off her glasses and causing redness and swelling on her cheek and eye, as well as a cut on her lip, records show.

Police said the incident was captured on surveillance video.

The silver Ford Focus was pulled over the next day and police said they were able to identify Brown as the suspect in the case. He and his girlfriend were trespassed from the McDonald's.

The victim was able to identify Brown in a photo lineup, records show.

Brown, 34, was arrested Wednesday on a charge of burglary and battery with one prior conviction.

In a big hurry at 3:20 a.m. Whatever drug he was on made him very hungry.

Execution, prison or killed getting arrested. This s*** needs to end. With extreme prejudice.

Maybe he’s not getting it-more ways than one.

I've noticed a lot of employees these days use that line no matter how polite the customer might be. Seems like a liberal trigger. Ask a simple question and they're all hyper that you're verbally abusing them. Even on a phone call where they can't possibly be physically assaulted.

I stopped going to McD’s because it always took half an hour even if you were third in line.

lol

The FASTEST mcDonalds I’ve ever been to was also the busiest by 10 times.

The one under Rockefeller Plaza.

TREMENDOUS number of people and I always got served in NO TIME.

I don’t know how to say this without sounding raciss..

But it’s like they recruited from every black neighborhood in NYC and took the best they could find and then trained them like fast food Navy SEALs, because I’ve never seen such an efficient group.

I’ve been to a lot of McDonald’s (and it shows in my stomach!!) and they seem to TRY to get the laziest of any group of people in the surrounding area.

But this place must have fired people quickly if they were no good because it’s hard when hiring someone whether you know they will be fast or not.

And they didn’t get it right the first time with 50 employees.

I rarely go to one and only when on a road trip.

Yesterday I stopped at a McD in Raleigh not far from NC State and big art museum.

The lunchtime crowd seemed to flow through ok.
