Charges Dismissed Against McDonalds Cashier Who Claimed Self-Defense When Attacked By Two Customers

December 5. 2011

Today charges were dismissed against former McDonalds cashier, Rayon McIntosh, for hitting two aggressive customers with a cooking rod, after they slapped him across the face, hopped the restaurant's counter and threatened to repeatedly stab him (McDonalds Cashier Beats Customers With A Metal Rod For Slapping Him Across The Face). 

7-weeks ago, the Judiciary Report labeled the incident as one that could be categorized in court as "self-defense." One week later, McIntosh's attorney entered a plea of "self-defense" on his behalf (McDonalds Cashier Accused Of Beating Two Violent Customers Claims Self-Defense In Court).

McIntosh was held for two months at Rikers Island prison in New York, but has been released this month, due to prosecutors dropping the charges, when the grand jury refused to indict. McIntosh stated he is elated to be released and is planning to sue the McDonalds restaurant in the Village, as he and other co-workers begged the owner of the franchise in question, Carmen Paulino, to get security, via off duty New York Police Department (NYPD) officers, but she refused, stating it is not in her "financial interest."

At the root of this issue is two overly aggressive customers that caused a world of trouble for McDonalds and their cashier that was undeserved. They knew better, as in all my years I have never seen anyone do such a thing at McDonalds or any other restaurant.
