North Carolina Authorities: Stun Gun Used on Woman at Drive-Thru

February 7, 2012

North Carolina authorities say they used a stun gun on a woman motorist who blocked a McDonald’s drive-thru for 20 minutes after employees refused to serve her because she cut in line.

Authorities say 37-year-old Evangeline Lucca bypassed the order screen and line and pulled directly up to the pick-up window Friday afternoon at the restaurant in Hope Mills, about 60 miles south of Raleigh.

Cumberland County sheriff’s spokeswoman Debbie Tanner told The Fayetteville Observer that the woman had her 3-year-old daughter in the car when she became confrontational with the workers before deputies arrived.

Tanna says Lucca was subsequently shocked by deputies and charged with second-degree trespass. A phone listing for the woman couldn’t be found.

Authorities say the woman’s daughter was taken into protective custody.

    I may be a Goomba but even I know that if they settled this your way, it would have taught her 3 year old a very bad lesson.

    Wow... couldn't they have just sold her one of those 99 cent hamburgers and sent her on her way?
