Heated Altercation at McDonald's in Sao Paulo Involves Flying Kick and Burger-Throwing
A violent incident unfolded on December 13 at a McDonald's in Sao Paulo, Brazil, involving a confrontation between staff and customers. A couple argued with the employees, during which a female customer threw a burger at a staff member. Meanwhile, a man accompanying her—and who was also with a small girl—launched a flying kick toward employees near the counter. An employee responded by throwing what appeared to be a burger box, with other staff quickly intervening. Following the kick, the man walked away.
Local media suggested the dispute might have originated from a food-order issue, although this has not been confirmed. McDonald's Brazil expressed regret over the violence, stating that it is currently investigating the incident and taking appropriate measures. Video footage capturing the altercation inside the Sao Paulo branch was reported by The Sun.
