Woman who smacked restaurant employee with takeout bag was 'upset' with sandwich
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Police in Washington are searching for an unknown woman who reportedly smacked a restaurant worker in the face with a takeout bag full of food, after being angered by her order.
On Saturday evening, around 7:52 p.m., a restaurant staffer at an establishment on “the west end of Kennewick” filled the customer’s order for a sandwich through the drive-thru, reps for the Kennewick Police Department (KPD) wrote on Facebook. Things quickly took a turn for the worse, however, when the female customer became “upset” over her meal – and walked into the restaurant.
“The victim said that the female entered the location and was verbally aggressive towards her before reaching over the counter and allegedly striking her in the side of the face with the bag of food she was carrying,” officials wrote online.

“We’d like to remind her that assaulting someone for not making your sandwich correctly is not okay,” reps for the KPD wrote online.
