BATH TOWNSHIP, MI -- The Bath Township Police Department has a very simple message for people who think they can drive home drunk and stop at McDonald's along the way.

Just don't.

Especially if the restaurant is closed, and the cops are literally watching you as you have a profanity-laced rant, then speed away.

According to a Facebook post by the department near Lansing, one person ignored those tips and is now behind bars after a drunken fit at a closed McDonald's resulted in the driver being arrested.

If you are going to get incredibly intoxicated at the bar and then drive home, we have a suggestion for you: On your way... Posted by Bath Township Police Department on Wednesday, September 27, 2017

The department's Facebook post explains police watched as a potential customer at the restaurant sat outside of a McDonald's -- where all the lights were off and no one was inside -- for several minutes before laying on their horn and cussing at the window.

Police, parked a few feet away, watched as the person then sped off from the restaurant, squealing their tires before going over a curb and onto a roadway.

"That is how you end up at the jail and the jail does not have any McFlurries. #McFailed" the post concludes.

Police arrested a 57-year-old man from Okemos, but could not release the name of the suspect as he has yet to be arraigned.

Bath Township is located approximately eight miles north of East Lansing.

In response to the post, the East Lansing Police Department got in on the fun with a comment of its own.
