It was a melee at McDonald's East on Sunday night after an off-duty employee allegedly pulled an airsoft gun, which looked like a semi-automatic rifle, and fired it at a co-worker he had a beef with.
According to the Macomb Police Report, Vincent Brown, 18, of Good Hope, was arrested for illegal consumption of alcohol by a minor, aggravated battery, disorderly conduct, and carrying/discharging an air rifle around 10 p.m. June 7.
The report stated that Brown purportedly drove his truck onto the curb of the East Jackson Street restaurant and waited for his co-worker to exit the establishment. When the employee stepped outside, Brown allegedly shot him with the AR-style airsoft gun.
'The gun was extremely realistic and several customers and witnesses called in a potential active threat,' said Macomb Police Chief Todd Tedrow. 'This incident could have ended badly for obvious reasons.'
The employee was not seriously injured and did not require medical attention.
