KISSIMMEE, Fla. — A Checkers restaurant in Kissimmee is back open after an altercation between an employee and a customer turned into a deadly shooting last week.

Court documents state cameras from the Checkers shows employee Elijah Mackey, 23, climbing out of a drive-thru window Wednesday night, walking to the front of the building where the victim was, then moments later deputies say it shows the victim falling to the ground.

In the arrest affidavit, two witness statements claim to have seen Wesley Robertson ordering from one of the front windows. After getting his order, the witnesses say he started complaining. One of the witness statements alleges it was over mayonnaise packets.

“It’s very shocking. It’s not even worth somebody’s life over a pack of mayonnaise,” said Yajaira Hernandez.

Mackey is charged with first-degree murder. Investigators allege the shooting was premeditated. Criminal attorney Jose Rivas explains how that could be the case. He says it only takes seconds to plan a shooting.

Back in the 80s where I am two blacks got into an argument over a piece of fried chicken.....one retrieved a shotgun and killed the other......I never thought a senseless killing would ever top that.....but here we are.

Crawling through a drive thru window.

Now that’s premeditation.

“Or maybe the mayo companies use it for marketing.
“Our mayo is good enough to die for”

You’ve been watching too many episodes of Mad Men. 😏

Never gits yo'self atween black folk and the "packet drawer". Anything in a packet is theirs to steal. "I'll has an Egga Nuffin, and nine packs o grape jelly, to go"

It's an amazing practice of condiments supply in the hood-home. I think McDonalds provides all the ketchup, mustard, jelly, salt, pepper, and paper napkins for the entire national black base of cust....I mean takers.

“Lack of impulse control on display”

It does seem to be in their DNA.

Savage is rooted in their psyche and no amount of civilization can remove it.

Probably from a single mom household with no papa around to teach him the necessity of self-control.

Perhaps the schools should teach kids how to respond appropriately.

You mean like running away from cops who order you to stay put.

“employee Elijah Mackey....is charged with first-degree murder.”

The owner of the Checkers, quite likely a person of color, is likely to be bleed dry by a lawsuit instead of being able to invest in another restaurant.

“ Gotta admit...this one made me chuckle.”

And next we have to have the courage to ban assault style mayo dispensers .
You know those big gallon sized containers with the pump on the top.

“Brother gots do have is mayo.”

Black women are hung up on “Ranch” dressing. I have read a few accounts of them demanding extra extra extra Ranch packets from the poor overwhelmed, soon to be zero tipped server.

Checkers needs to do a better job screening prospective employees, that’s for sure!

He was just trying to save the restaurant some money.
