The employee was promptly fired, the manager told Channel 2. He was identified by police as 24-year-old Johnte Robinson.

The victim was taken to a hospital for his injury, which police do not consider life-threatening.

Robinson was arrested on a charge of aggravated assault and is being held in the DeKalb County Jail.

DeKalb police are investigating the incident, according to spokeswoman Michaela Vincent. She confirmed Robinson was a Checkers employee.

“Investigators believe the shooting is the result of a dispute over an incorrect order,” Vincent said in an email.

Bullet holes and shattered glass could be seen at the walk-up window Wednesday morning. Discarded chicken, presumably from the same order that caused the dispute, was still on the counter.
