Tuesday's incident marks the latest in a string of violent altercations observed at fast-food restaurants. Most notably, a Popeyes customer in Wisconsin received an unexpected side of mayhem when a wild brawl between employees erupted moments after he walked into a Milwaukee location of the chicken chain.

"Honestly, I wasn't even going to get the chicken sandwich," customer Richard Fourté told Fox 6 Now of his intended order when visiting Popeyes on Nov. 13. Fourté said he ultimately left empty-handed, as an “out of control” brawl between workers caused chaos.
