A breakfast customer licensed to carry a gun fired a warning
shot and stopped the 26-year-old woman as she tried to flee,
Eastpointe police Lt. Alex Holish said.
“For a verbal dispute to turn into this is ridiculous,” Holish
told the Macomb Daily. “People have to learn how to resolve
their disputes."
The victim was identified as Jennifer Harris, a mother of six
children who had worked at the McDonald's location for more than
10 years, family members said.
"My mama died trying to take care of us,” daughter Antonia
Griffin said.
Holish said the suspect was sent home after an argument but
returned with a knife.
“We are deeply saddened by this tragic incident, and our hearts
go out to the victim’s family and loved ones," said Yusef
Alcodray, who owns the Eastpointe franchise site.
