A graphic video of the incident was captured and published on TikTok. After seemingly being taken down, it was reposted and circulated on Twitter, which captured two minutes of the incident between the man and several patrons at the fast food chain.
One man in New York City was arrested on Friday, Sept. 16 after “menacing” customers at a McDonald’s, which included using a small ax, according to police.
The man in the video appears to then remove his backpack and pulled out what appeared to be a small ax. With the ax, he smashed the end of a table at the location and shattered a glass barrier. He then approached several patrons with the ax, but did not appear to inflict any injury using the weapon, as seen in the video.
When sent the video, a spokesperson for the Office of the Deputy Commissioner, Public Information told TODAY in a statement police responded to the incident at approximately 2:25 a.m. at the McDonald’s, which was located on Delancey Street in the Lower East Side neighborhood of Manhattan.
