A 21-year-old fast food worker died after being stabbed repeatedly by a former employee at the restaurant, authorities said.

Taylor Friloux, 21, of LaPlace, was a shift manager at a Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers restaurant in Kenner, Louisiana. She died earlier this week of multiple stab wounds.

Two men robbed employees of the restaurant at knifepoint, stealing money from the safe before one of them stabbed Friloux to death, police said.

Authorities have arrested four people so far, including two former employees accused of committing the armed robbery, one man accused of being the getaway driver, and a woman accused of recruiting the perpetrators.

Joshua Every, 23, of LaPlace, and Gregory Donald Jr, 18, of Kenner, went to the closed Raising Cane's restaurant around 1:20 am on Wednesday and approached employees who were taking out the trash, police said.

Both Every and Donald had worked at the restaurant previously, the Times-Picayune reported.

They stole the employees' cellphones and forced Taylor, who had just gotten out of the restaurant by a rear door, to go back inside, according to authorities.

Friloux refused to open the door at first and got stabbed, police said. She eventually opened the door and complied with the robbers, who took money from the safe, a police release states.

The two men were about to exit the restaurant when Friloux collapsed, which is when one of the perpetrators stabbed her repeatedly, police said.

She was taken to the hospital and later died of eight stab wounds, the New Orleans Advocate reported based on a police report.

Friloux had been stabbed in the head, neck and chest, the Times-Picayune wrote.

Police arrested Every on Thursday and booked Donald the following day.

Donald first told them he had been the getaway driver, but eventually confessed to being the person who entered the Raising Cane's restaurant with Every, police said in a statement.

He told authorities he was carrying a box cutter while Every had a knife during the robbery, according to a release by the police.

Donald said a woman had recruited him to take part in a robbery, which he helped plan, and told detectives Every had 'stabbed that girl', the release states.

He said Every told the occupants of the getaway car that he thought he had 'killed that girl', police said.

Every has been charged with first-degree murder, aggravated kidnapping, criminal conspiracy, aggravated burglary, three counts of armed robbery, and aggravated assault.

Donald has been charged with first-degree murder, aggravated kidnapping, criminal conspiracy to armed robbery, aggravated burglary, three counts of armed robbery, and aggravated assault.

They took approximately $1,000 from the restaurant, police said.

Two other people have been arrested in connection with the case.

Mark Crocklen Jr, 24, of LaPlace, was the getaway driver, police said. He surrendered to authorities after Every's arrest and admitted his role in the robbery, officers said in a release.

Crocklen told police murdering Friloux was not part of the plan, authorities said.

He has been charged with second-degree murder, conspiracy to armed robbery and three counts of armed robbery.

Ariana Yanni Runner, 22, of Reserve, Louisiana, actively recruited those who committed the robbery at Raising Cane's, police said.

She was not in the car at the time of the robbery according to authorities.

Runner will be charged with second-degree murder, conspiracy-armed robbery, three counts of armed robbery, and aggravated burglary, a police release states.

Police are still working to identify a fifth suspect, whom they say was inside the vehicle.

First-degree murder is punishable by death or life imprisonment in Louisiana. Second-degree murder is punishable by life imprisonment.

Friloux, who graduated from Archbishop Chapelle High School in 2013, loved animals and often joked she would end up as an old lady surrounded by rescued cats, an obituary states.

She began working at Raising Cane's at 17 years old and was promoted to shift manager within two years.

Friloux had plans to go back to college in the fall to study business management.

'Taylor was a very sweet, sweet-hearted girl. Just super nice,' neighbor Craig Gommel, told the Times-Picayune.

He drove Friloux to school each morning along with his own daughter, who went to the same high school.

'She was very professional at the job out here.'

Raising Cane's will cover all funeral expenses for Friloux, the Times-Picayune reported. The service will take place on Tuesday.
