Good Thing I Was In The Drive Up WindowI was in the drive-up window picking up my order at the north Burger King here in Bend when several police officers came flying into the parking lot and two stepped out on foot with guns drawn behind my van, looking behind the dumpster area at the fast food joint. I immediately locked my doors and rolled up my windows. I cracked them back down and I asked the Burger King lady what was going on, and they say they had just been robbed at gunpoint, and asked me if I'd seen anything. I hadn't. Which is too bad because the guy got away on foot, according to this story and it would've helped had I seen something. If I was inside getting my order (which I would've done had there been a car or two in the drive-up), I would've been in there at the same time as the guy. A scary thought, indeed. I was kind of shaken by the whole thing and drove off without my drink. Oh well. But from now on, I'm doing drive-up when I go to a fast food place after dark, no questions asked.

Jesse Thompson said on 08/30/07 @ 02:22 AM: Say the same thing happened to me! My family was also saved from a harrowing experience by the drive through. We were in the McDonald's drive through. The South one. You know, not the Wal-Mart (they don't have a drive through) but the actual store across from Hollywood video. So anyway at the exact same time as we were in the drivethrough, one of the other tennants in my triplex shot and killed his room mate. So.. well it's not the same then, we could have gone in to eat anyway. BUT WATCH THIS! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FT060JGp9sQ Scott said on 08/30/07 @ 12:35 PM: The police say that this guy did it. Post a comment |
