Did you see the pictures the girl posted of herself? She is also literally bragging that she is the girl starting the fight. Not a rational person who would make a judgement call about not hurting others.
Hmm, lemme see how much damage I can do to your face with the tray and you can decide if you want to wait 10 minutes for the cops. I should get enough hits in to leave your face a bloody pulp.
As far as bystanders getting hurt, the so called customer had already elevated the altercation to a level where others could get hurt.
There comes a point where you need to stop physical attacks with a physical response.
If someone was physically assaulting a 4 year old kid with a tray, would you call the cops and wait for them to show up and watch the kid get hurt or would you physically intervene and risk someone else getting hurt?
The point is that customer was starting to go off the deep end. No telling what she would do.
Some of you are defending the actions of an employee who cannot control her emotions. "She'd make a damn good cop." Really?! Crowd control would surely end in death. But I suppose that would be OK? It really sounds like if this young soda thief had been critically injured you'd all be just fine with that. Over pennies.That's some straight Hunger Games nonsense, and it sounds crazy. You want more civility in society? It has to apply across the board.
McDonalds is going to lose an ishton of money, the employee will lose her job and have a hard time finding another, and the thief will be rewarded in the end. If this had been handled properly none of these things would have happened. Madness.
Had the customer/ thief chosen to leave when confronted, the whole deal would not have happened. Instead, the customer/ thief escalated the situation when she made it personal and repeatedly insulted the employee, threw a fry, then a milk shake and finally hit the employee in the face with a tray.
The ability to deescalate a conflict is a valuable skill.
If this type of stealing is so prevalent as some claim, the fast food restaurants should put the soda machines behind the counters where they used to be. Let the employees fill and refill the blasted soda cups.
Or just end the refillable cup thing.
McDonald’s charges $1 for any size soda including the 32 oz size- a quart. Want a refill? Pay for it.

Customer/ thief’s purported profession is not relevant.

Oh, I thought she was a teenager based on her size. Shoot her then, I guess.
If you want to talk about facts, all the people in this thread should stop changing them to fit their sick need for violent retribution. She did not hit a child. These are two adults, one an employee. One much larger than the other, who got wet and was glanced with an aluminum tray. I'm not saying it's right; that little weirdo should be in jail. But the employee should be in a cell right next to her.
"The Purge" is not real life. Mountain Dew is not an acid attack. Control yourselves.
Adolescent means teenager. I thought she was a teenager. Her age does not change my stance or argument. Still:
ad·o·les·cent
ˌadəˈles(ə)nt/ adjective
adjective: adolescent
1. (of a young person) in the process of developing from a child into an adult
synonyms: young
This girl still seems deeply in the middle of this process. Some might call it suspended.
