FORT PIERCE, Fla. - Authorities say a Florida woman called 911 three times after McDonald's employees told her they were out of Chicken McNuggets.
A police report says 27-year-old Fort Pierce resident Latreasa L. Goodman told authorities she paid for a 10-piece last week but was later informed the restaurant had run out.
She says she was refused a refund and told all sales were final. A cashier told police she offered Goodman a larger portion of different food for the same price, but Goodman became irate.
"This is an emergency. If I would have known they didn't have McNuggets, I wouldn't have given my money, and now she wants to give me a McDouble, but I don't want one," Goodman told police, according to The Stuart News. "This is an emergency."
Police say Goodman was cited on a misuse of 911 charge. A current phone listing for Goodman couldn't be found.
A McDonald's spokesman says Goodman should have been given a refund, and she's being sent a gift card for a free meal.
They say that in the Army,
the women are mighty fine.
They look like Phyllis Diller,
and walk like Frankenstein.
I wouldn't have given her anything. She doesn't have any reason to complain, she was going to be given a larger meal for the same price, so she shouldn't have been so annoying about it. Had she not made a huge deal about it I as a cashier just handed her the money back from my pocket. But that's just me.
It could be an "emergency" if she were somehow allergic to all foods but McNuggets, but if that remote possibility were the case she'd have killed herself long ago. This puts a recent overreaction of mine in sharp perspective.
