Charge upgraded to felony because of slurs, records show
Wildwood police arrested a 77-year-old woman after they say she admitted to throwing a Whopper at a Burger King worker while calling the victim a “stupid Black (expletive).”
Officers arrested Judith Ann Black, of The Villages, on Friday.
Police said they were called to a Burger King on Seven Mile Drive just after 6 p.m.
Investigators said they spoke with the victim who told them that an older woman was not satisfied with her Whopper and was screaming at the victim while standing at the counter. The victim said she asked Black to stop yelling so that she could help her, records show.
The victim turned around, which is when Black threw the sandwich and said, “Shut up you Black (expletive)” as she stormed out with her husband and left in white Ram pick-up, according to the arrest report. Police said several witnesses backed up the victim’s claims and also heard Black use a racial slur.
Surveillance video caught the license plate on the Ram pick-up, which police said they used to track down Black and positively ID her from her driver’s license photo matched against video from inside the restaurant.
Police interviewed Black after she was read her Miranda Rights. The woman said that she was upset with the thickness of the tomato on her Whopper and confronted the victim at the counter, according to the report. Black told police she was angry that the worker was not fixing the issues and stated she “had the burger in my hand and tossed it at her.”
Black further admitted to shouting at the victim, calling her a “stupid Black (expletive).” Police said that the evidence of prejudice enhances the misdemeanor battery charge to a felony charge.
How can it be racially motivated? Wouldn’t they both be Black Biotches?
hold the pickle, hold the lettuce...have it your way at burger king...
the old broad should be happy people are working and not sitting home collecting their stimulus checks.
She should have just blackened her face, looted the place, broke windows, and set it on fire with a Molotov cocktail, and she wouldn’t have even been arrested.
Beefsteak tomatoes will be next on their hit list.
So the Perp was a Black, but she escaped in a White truck.
What is wrong with people?!
Oh, those wacky, zany Village People!
Villages ping.
You wouldn’t see this kind of thing going on with Del Boca Visa residents.
[Ann Black, of The Villages,]
I thought The Villages was America’s friendliest home town?
Everybody dancing and stuff. Must have been one bad Whopper.
“The woman said that she was upset with the thickness of the tomato on her Whopper and confronted the victim at the counter, according to the report.”
Was the tomato too thick, or not thick enough?
I read on some garden discussion board of some people who brought one of their home-grown beauties into a local BK and replaced the offending slice with something more tasty and substantial.
They never mentioned a corkage fee.
She didn’t have it her way, it seems.
Well... the tomato was not sliced properly!
Come on, man!
The tomatoes at fast food joints are always hot house tomatoes; green on the inside, no matter the time of year. If you expect any kind of decent tomato, no matter how sliced, eat at home and grow your own. I would never complain about the tomato; I expect them to be lousy.
Homegrown tomatoes homegrown tomatoes
What’d life be without homegrown tomatoes
Only two things that money can’t buy
That’s true love & homegrown tomatoes
Confusing article. A woman named “Black” is using the word “black” as a slur. It took me a moment.
Her name is Black - oh the irony!
I was talking to a friend yesterday. He said he and his wife had their anniversary dinner at Ruth’s Chris. He said they split a $200 Tomahawk rib steak.
He chatted up his waiter, who he had met on a previous occasion. The waiter said it’s a great job, he’s been there twenty five years and put two kids through college, works three to four days a week, pulls in $150k. He said sous chefs start at $35 an hour. He pointed at the Latino kid pouring water, says he’s making $30 an hour plus benefits. Guess what, they are having trouble hiring.
