McDonald's Gun Shots

FEBRUARY 10--Meet Shaneka Monique Torres.

Angered that her order had been botched by McDonald’s workers, the Michigan woman fired a single shot into the restaurant’s drive-thru window around 3:10 this morning, Grand Rapids police allege.

According to cops, after ordering at the drive-thru window, the 29-year-old Torres and another woman “complained that the order was incorrect.”  When a McDonald’s employee stepped away from the window, “one shot was fired from the suspect vehicle.”

Torres was reportedly upset because she expected bacon on the sandwich she ordered.

The bullet, police reported, entered the eatery at “head level” and “traveled through the window, across the dining room, and exited the restaurant through another window on the east side of the restaurant.” Nobody was hit, however.

Officers subsequently located the car from which the shot allegedly was fired. Torres was arrested and “the handgun involved” was seized as evidence.

Seen in the above mug shot, Torres was booked into the Kent County Correctional Facility, where she is awaiting arraignment on weapons and discharging a firearm charges. The 5’ 7”, 256-pound Torres is being held in lieu of $50,000 bond. (1 page)
