A McDonald's worker who was shot in the neck during an argument over a customer's cold fries has died from his injuries, it was confirmed this morning.
Fast food joint worker Matthew Webb, 23, was shot by gunman Michael Morgan, 20, on Monday and he was rushed to hospital in a critical condition.
NYPD confirmed Friday morning that after being declared brain dead, Webb has now passed away.
Webb, from Queens, was shot outside a McDonald's in Bedford-Stuyvesant following a heated spat with the suspect's mother who was complaining about cold French fries.
Video surveillance reportedly shows Morgan punching Webb in the face, and when the worker tried to get up, he shoots him in the neck before fleeing the scene, and attempting to dispose of his clothing, prosecutors alleged.
Webb, 23, who was found lying on the sidewalk after being shot, blood streaming into the street, was rushed to the hospital in critical condition and was put on life support. He has now sadly died.
Morgan kept his eyes down and didn't speak as he was arraigned on Thursday for the attempted murder.
Assistant District Attorney Luis Paternina said, before it was announced that Webb had died, that upgraded charges are likely against Morgan, who is being held without bail pending another court appearance next week.
Morgan was also arraigned in a separate October 2020 murder that he reportedly confessed to earlier this week.
Morgan was taken into custody Monday night. His girlfriend, Camellia Dunlap, has also been charged in connection with the case after she allegedly handed Morgan the gun prior to the shooting, prosecutors said.

Give the gunman the electric chair. Fry him good.
Drop him in a deep-fryer.
“Give the gunman the electric chair. Fry him good.”

Close All the McDonalds just like Seattle did with the Starbucks. Efff ‘em.
Try him and his mother.

More black-on-black mayhem and murder that isn’t the blacks fault.
No death penalty in NY my friend
No impulse control with some people.
The shooters father was unavailable for comment
Murder over cold fries.
What a sick world.
That’s the victim. The “gunman” is seen in the article, and luckily, he’s wearing a covid mask to stop the spread of germs, not hide his face. /s
Did the gunman stomp the victim in the head as he lay on the ground?
This guy confessed to another murder less than two years ago and he’s out on the street? Another triumph of “progressive” justice.
