Fort Pierce Woman Cited For Misusing 911 Emergency Communications System

FORT PIERCE, Fla. -- A Fort Pierce woman called 911 three times to report an emergency after McDonald's had run out of McNuggets, according to a police report obtained Tuesday.

Latreasa Goodman, 27, was issued a written notice to appear in court for misusing the 911 emergency communications system.

According to the report, Goodman called 911 three times Saturday to report that a McDonald's employee wasn't giving her a refund for the chicken nuggets she wanted.

When police arrived, Goodman said she purchased a 10-piece chicken McNugget meal, received her change and then was told McDonald's had run out of McNuggets. Goodman said she tried to get a refund, but the cashier told her it was against store policy and that all sales are final.

"The manager just took my money and won't give me my money back, trying to make me get something off the menu that I don't want," Goodman said in one of the 911 calls. "I ordered chicken nuggets. They don't have chicken nuggets, and so I told her, 'Just give me my money back,' and she tells me I have to pick something else off the menu. She is not going to give me my money back, and she don't have the right to take my money."

According to the report, after police told Goodman the incident was not an emergency, Goodman replied, "This is an emergency. If I would have known they didn't have McNuggets, I wouldn't have given my money, and now she wants to give me a McDouble, but I don't want one. This is an emergency."

Customers at the McDonald's where the incident occurred had mixed feelings about the McNugget meltdown.

Daniel Slaton said he typically orders McNuggets when he goes to McDonald's, saying simply, "I just like them better than anywhere else."

But Sallee Bair had a different perspective.

"That's a little overboard," Bair said. "That's way too much, way extreme for chicken nuggets. They're not that great."

Carlos Solorzano, operations manager for all McDonald's restaurants in Florida, issued a statement Tuesday apologizing for the incident.

"Satisfying each and every customer that visits our restaurants is very important to us," Solorzano said. "Regarding this isolated incident, we apologize for the inconvenience caused. In the event that we are unable to fill an order, a customer should be offered the choice of a full refund or alternative menu items. We regret that in this instance, that wasn't the case.

"We want to correct our mistake. We will be sending the customer her refund, along with an invitation to return for her original order, on us. We never want to disappoint a McNuggets fan or any McDonald's customer. Customer satisfaction is our top priority."

I’ll take my clothes off and it will be shameless
‘Cuz everyone knows that’s how you get famous

I'll call 911 for *insert random dumbass reason* and it'll be shameless
'Cus everyone knows that's how you get famous.

New trend.

Well, to be fair, it was pretty stupid to not give her a refund. But then again, the 911 call...

**Pikarya** · 2009-03-04 03:06

Its awesome how the operator on the first soundclip is like.

"Umm yeah. Okay mam, we're sending an officer out to you RIGHT now."

Technically it's considered robbery if they didn't refund her etc. Really I would have done the same thing it's not an emergency call but it definitly warrants police action imo. Theres probably a huge law suit possibility out of this instance.

**HAcoreRD** · 2009-03-04 03:52

She was right to be pissed about not getting her money back, but wrong way about taking action. This is the correct way to go about this situation.

God I LOVE that movie. In any case, ya I have no idea why they refused her a refund. But to call 911 over it... this is why most major chains just tell you to give them their money, because it's so easy to make a lawsuit out of this.

Absolutely fucking stupid. McDonalds employees at fault for not refunding her when they didn't have what she wanted. She's even fucking stupider for calling 911, although I think it was probably more because she didn't know the number to her local police department.

Hardly a fucking emergency, and totally selfish. The line exists for when people are in danger, not when you don't get the fucking food you want.

**Bingbong** · 2009-03-04 08:38

They actually gave her a citation for improper use of emergency services.

You know those McNuggets weren't worth over like 4 bucks, and now she's gotta pay a ticket that's at least $25.

Sound logic right there.

Also, the clerk stated it was against store policy to refund. Is it a stupid policy, yeah, but if it's a posted policy, she should have known she wasn't getting her money back.

**Vandalhart** · 2009-03-04 08:47

Then perhaps they shouldn't have taken her money to begin with?

I mean. If a business doesn't know whats in their inventory when they
open in the morning, and keep track of it, it's a pretty shitty business.

I like how they sent her a refund, and offered her a free 10 peice nugget
on top of that.

The idiot gets rewarded for stupidity.. wonderful.

**Brill Weave** · 2009-03-04 08:49

Both parties are idiots. McDonald's should have refunded her money. And she shouldn't have been so fucking stupid to call the cops over two dollar chicken nuggets.

**0ni0n** · 2009-03-04 09:14

Why will you guys do if it was you? Are you going to walk away hungry and a couple dollars fewer than before?

**Pikarya** · 2009-03-04 09:16

Order a salad and call it a day.

Nah son, I keep it real. I would have beat the shit out of that manager.

**Devek** · 2009-03-04 09:32

So who would you call when someone steals from you besides the police?

A lot of places when you pull up the phone book and dial the number for the police, you end up with 911 dispatch because it is the same thing...
