http://www.wmur.com/news/Police-Man-arrested-for-putting-soda-in-water-cup-at-Springdale-McDonald-s/39112222

SPRINGDALE, Arkansas —Cody Morris, 18, was arrested Monday for putting soda inside a water cup at a Springdale McDonald's, refusing to return the soda, according to the police report sent to 40/29 News.

The manager told police he tried to stop the suspects from driving away, but he was hit by their car, according to the report.

The manager for the McDonald's at 520 S. Thompson St. called police Monday to report a robbery, according to the report. The manager told police 3 people went through the drive thru and asked for 3 large waters. Those 3 parked, went into the restaurant, dumped out the water and then filled the cups with soda, the manager told police.

The manager asked the 3 people to return the soda. Two of them did, but one did not, the manager told police.

Then, the manager stood behind the suspect's car and tried to stop them from leaving, according to the report, but the car reversed and hit the manager. The manager tried to get the keys out of the ignition and was hit on the hand and then by the vehicle again, the manager told police.

Police found the vehicle at a bowling alley and arrested the driver, who was Cody Morris, according to the report.

The police report lists one charge against Morris - that of felony robbery. The Washington County Detention Center website shows Morris was booked into jail Tuesday, and had a Rule 8.1 hearing scheduled for Friday morning.

I usually get water because I only drink soda professionally.  Asshats like that will make it impossible to get a cup of water.

Over a dime or less worth of soda?

I get the indignance, but the mental math ain't strong in that manager, and will probably be what gets him fired.

When I was 18 I worked at a Taco Bell.  One time a couple of kids (around 10 yo maybe) came in and got a couple tacos and waters.  They asked what would happen if they put soda in their water cups, I just shrugged.  They both looked like they won the lottery, and sneaked up a couple times to refill their cups.  I still laugh about the looks on their faces.

The manager chose poorly. He never should have risked his safety over a $1.00 worth of product. The manager would be fucked if he used his CCW. The liberals would say the manager shot a "nice kid over a $1 drink...oh boo hoo think of the children."

I get the indignance. Which is worse for his employer? A drink, or the medical costs associated with being run over? The juice doesn't seem worth the squeeze.

Fast food places could eliminate this by selling bottle water.

When I worked fast food and caught people doing this and they couldn't or wouldn't pay we just kicked them out. One old lady tried to steal coffee in a (wax paper) water cup. We just laughed at her.

A few years back one of our employees thought she saw a customer swipe some stuff off the shelf.  We went back to the tape and the guy had stolen a couple cigarette lighters. We called the police and gave them the customer's info (he had pawned stuff with us). Police picked him up and the guy spent Christmas and New years in the county jail waiting tria for shoplifting $9 worth of stuff.





$9 isn't much, but I agree, to hell with thieves. We will prosecute no matter how small the amount. What we will not do is put ourselves or our employees into harms way over $9 items. No way would I try to stop a car because the guy had shoplifted $9.

30 years ago when I worked at a Burger King I was told that their biggest cup held about three cents worth of product.

In today's money that's what? Eight or nine cents, right?
