A brutal fight between a Minneapolis McDonald's drive-thru customer and a manager was caught on camera Monday. The video of the brutal Minneapolis McDonald's drive-thru fight immediately went viral as soon as it was posted on Liveleak.
According to The Inquisitr, the incident took place at the McDonald's outlet located on Stinson Boulevard in the Quarry shopping district, north eastern Minneapolis. Spanning 67 seconds, the footage was reportedly filmed via mobile phone by another customer named Gabe Hart, who was next in line at the time.
Hart said that when he pulled in to the McDonald's drive-thru at the time, he immediately noticed that the customer in front of him already looked upset.
According to the Star Tribune, the McDonald's drive-thru fight occurred after the employee took too long getting change for a $100 bill the customer gave him to pay a $3 sandwich. The cashier asked for the manager's help, after which the customer attacked him when he got back to the window.
Hart said that the employee even dropped some of the change upon handing them to the customer. It appears the customer got irate because of the employee's slow pace and clumsiness, starting the Minneapolis McDonald's fight. The drive-thru customer got out of his car, spit in the employee's face, after which he tried punching him.
"At first I was annoyed the guy in front of me was taking so long. He seemed pretty upset to begin with, but it looked like when the McDonald's guy handed him his cash and change back he dropped some of the dude's change," Hart said.
"That's when he got out of his car, spit on the drive-through window and tried to punch the McDonald's [worker] and that's when I started recording," he added.
WPVI TV reported that according to the manager, the man wouldn't let go of his tie and he thought he would die of a choke. Eventually, he was able to get back inside the window after giving the customer some blows.
Police arrived later and the customer reportedly calmed down after the McDonald's drive-thru fight. The31-year-old customer, who was not identified by police, was arrested and charged with misdemeanor assault.
