A man is in critical condition after he was shot while on the job at a McDonald's in Brooklyn. It started when a customer, who sources say was angry her fries were cold, approached the worker and started arguing with him.
A 23-year-old man is in critical condition after, police say, he was shot while on the job at a McDonald's in Brooklyn, CBS New York's Natalie Duddridge and Alecia Reid report.Some of the victim's colleagues described him as a good guy, and said the shooting left them on edge about going back to work.
"That something could happen like that over something so simple as food, that's crazy," one person in the neighborhood said. "He was working, at work, this happened at work? It's kind of sad, because he's trying to make a living," another person remarked. It started when a customer, who sources told CBS2 was angry her fries were cold, approached the worker, identified as Matthew Webb, 23, and started arguing with him.
The argument moved outside and that's when, sources said, the woman called over her 20-year-old son to"take care of the problem." He then pulled out a gun and shot Webb in the neck. "Cold French fries should not result in a shooting. At the end of the day, it's gun violence all over this country, particularly in this city, that has to be brought under control, and fast food restaurants are not the safe havens they used to be," attorney Sanford Rubenstein told Reid.
