Fry Rage: McDonald's Order Sparks Fight

Reporting
Bill Shields
QUINCY (WBZ) ― "I guess it just goes to show how short-tempered people are with their fast food", said Quincy Police Capt. John Dougan.

Tuesday night, at a North Quincy McDonald's, two customers apparently ordered large fries, but when they were given a small order, they went ballistic.

Police say 22-year-old Christina Galipeau of Baystate Rd., threw her coins at the cashier, then got into a fight with her. Her companion, 33-year-old Eugene Jackson of Dorchester, then picked up a two-foot tall cone, the kind that's used to mark wet floors, and hurled it at another cashier. Both are now charged with Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon.

Today, WBZ obtained the 911 call from a frightened customer:

POLICE OPERATOR: "911, this call's recorded, what's your emergency?"
CALLER: "Yes, I need police at the North Quincy MCDonald's please."
OPERATOR: "What's the problem?"
CALLER: "There's a fight with customers and employees!"
OPERATOR: "Alright, we'll be right there."

But when police arrived, Galipeau and Jackson were gone. Alert employees got their license plate, and the two were arrested at Galipeau's home.
