McDonald's Cook Arrested for "Over Salting" a Police Officer's Hamburger

A cook at McDonalds in Union City, Georgia was arrested and charged with reckless conduct after a "salty" hamburger was sold to a white Union City police officer.

The officer came threw the drive thru, placed his order, received his order and left. He came back later and accused the cook, a black female, of over salting his food. He then radioed for backup and arrested the cook. The cook, Kendra Bull, told Fox 5 Atlanta that she over salted some of the meat by accident, but believes that the police officer went way too far by arresting her.

The Union City police officer said in his report that the burger made him sick and that he believed the meat had been intentionally over salted. The officer along with 2 other police officers took pictures of the "salty burger" and then took the officer in question to the hospital.

Bull spent the night in jail before being released on a $1,000.00 signature bond. The public defender went before the judge and asked that the charges be dismissed. The judge denied his request stating that Bull might not have over salted the food on purpose, but that it was with reckless disregard that she allowed the excess salt and pepper to be added to the food.

Bull opted for a jury trial. Neither the Union City Police Department nor McDonalds had any comment.
