Woman Calls 911 Over 'McNugget Emergency'

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

Latreasa Goodman, 27, was issued a written notice to appear in court for misusing the 911 emergency communications system, West Palm Beach television station WPBF reported.

According to the report, Goodman called 911 three times on 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.

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.”
