Burger King customer opens fire through drive-thru window over long wait time: report

Some people take the term "fast-food" a little too literally.

Authorities in Tennessee are searching for a woman who allegedly fired a gun through a Burger King’s drive-thru window. Fortunately, employees in the restaurant were reportedly able to escape through a rear doorway and no injuries were reported.

The Memphis Police Department posted about the incident on Facebook, which occurred at a Burger King in Memphis on Tuesday, March 30th. According to the post, no arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing.

Witnesses reportedly said that the woman was upset at how long she the wait at the drive-thru was. She allegedly exited her vehicle and approached the window, where she began arguing with one of the workers.

The woman then reportedly returned to her vehicle (which she was not the driver of) and retrieved a handgun. Authorities say she returned to the drive-thru window, leaned inside the restaurant and fired the gun several times.

The woman then returned to her car, which drove away from the scene.

The Memphis police wrote on Facebook that employees at the restaurant fled through a rear door and were unharmed.

The Facebook post also included several images from security cameras that show the woman leaning through the window and pointing a gun inside the restaurant.

That reminds me, that’s not what they mean by taking a gun out and hunting for your dinner.

In this case, the customer reverted to hunter once the gatherer approach didn’t work to her satisfaction.

If I recall the movie, I think the phrase is "This is Joe's complete lack of surprise."

They should at least get equal service and when I have been a customer inside businesses with scant inside customers and a line of 8 cars I can guarantee you that I’ve always had to wait while they gave preferential treatment to the drive through.

Unfortunately for the walk-in customers, the restaurant / franchise owner may face heavy fines for traffic backing up into the roadway. The police might even shut them down for repeat violations. They've had fatalities near me where drive-through cars were backed up into a highway shoulder and rear-ended by another motorist.

Also, it's not just passing vehicular traffic, it's cars across the sidewalk putting pedestrians walking around them at risk.

I hate it when I guess right; makes me feel like a racist.
