According to 911 calls and police reports obtained by Channel 2 Action News, Nefertiti Ogun got mad about something having to do with her order at the McDonald’s near the intersection of Hammond Drive and Roswell Road. She’s accused of pulling a knife and throwing cups at the employees, the news station reported.

“She came out of nowhere,” one of the employees said in a 911 call on Sept. 17. “She had a knife on her and she had the knife in her hand.”

Ogun was eventually tracked down and charged with felony assault offenses. She remains in custody at the Fulton County Jail.
