Police: Drive-thru order ends in food fight, brawl (June 13th, 2010 @ 11:02am)

KALAMAZOO, Mich. (AP) - Hamburgers, fries, punches and chairs all were thrown during a fight involving customers and employees of a fast food restaurant in Kalamazoo that ended with two arrests. Police said four customers in a vehicle at a Wendy's drive-thru lane midday Saturday claimed their order was incorrect. Police said they hurled drinks, hamburgers and fries at an employee inside.

Police said the employee then threw food at the vehicle, hitting it with a drink, ketchup and fries, and two people from the vehicle went inside the restaurant, where they fought with employees.

Two of the customers were arrested on charges of assault. The employee had scrapes and abrasions, but didn't need medical attention.

Police said employees blamed the fight on a "communication breakdown."

Deer drops in for dinner at upstate NY restaurant (June 14th, 2010 @ 5:27am)

BATAVIA, N.Y. (AP) - It wasn't on the menu, but customers at a western New York restaurant got an up-close look at some venison on the hoof.

Management and customers say a deer crashed through a window at an Applebee's in Batavia just after 7 p.m. Sunday.

Customer Bruce Beck, who was visiting from Wisconsin, says the deer nearly slid into the booth next to his before veering away and running through the restaurant.

Witnesses say people were able to herd the deer out the front door.

No one was hurt.
