Four Jimmy John’s workers at a Woodstock store in Cherokee County were fired over Independence Day weekend after filming themselves playing with a noose made from dough.

One employee draped the noose over the neck of another while others watched and laughed. A celebratory “Happy 4th of July” filter streamed across the bottom of the video.

The clip was posted on Snapchat, according to the Ledger-Enquirer, and shared across social media.

Jimmy John’s condemned the incident on Twitter and said the employees had been fired.
