McDonald’s in Atlantic City. Woah! Posted by Scan AtlanticCity on Saturday, March 30, 2019

UPDATE: 4 charged in McDonald’s skirmish

Police are investigating a lengthy melee at a McDonald’s restaurant in Atlantic City that involved a woman standing on a counter and twice pepper-spraying a security guard during a fight over the weekend.

Officers were called to the fast-food eatery on Arkansas Avenue around 12:30 a.m. Saturday after a skirmish broke out inside, Sgt. Kevin Fair said Monday morning.

Video posted on the Facebook page of Scan Atlantic City shows women already behind the counter tossing wrapped food and straws during a chaotic scene. One of the women then climbs on the counter and pepper-sprays a security guard twice.

She then shakes the canister again but doesn’t appear to spray anyone else. A couple of other people toss straws and other items before a group that includes the woman runs from the restaurant amid shouting.

No one has been issued a summons or arrested, Fair said. The fight is under investigation.

BreakingAC.com said one of the instigators of the fight had a “previous issue with an employee.”

The McDonald’s is next to the Tanger Outlets Atlantic City, a 109-store open-air outlet mall.
