Three Wendy’s employees have been arrested for serving a customer who complained about an order food they allegedly pulled from the trash and spit on, according to police.
Aaliyah Shuntai Sanders, 23, Trinity Lashell Rice, 19, and Shadela Crystal Holley were each arrested between June 16 and June 22 after the nasty incident at the South Carolina fast food joint last month, according to Fox Carolina.
A customer ordered food from the restaurant in Union — about 60 miles east of Greenville — on May 31 but had an issue with the order and asked for a refund. The staff said they would remake her order, according to a police report obtained by the outlet.
The customer was handed the food she was told had been remade and ate it as she left the restaurant — but shortly afterwards received a call from someone at the store claiming staff had spat in the food and had removed it from the trash can.
The woman took a closer look at the food and told police she realized she was given the same food from her initial order.
She then called the store and spoke with the manager, who told her that he had spoken with employees and confirmed what had happened.
Wendy’s called the incident “wholly unacceptable” and confirmed the sick trio have been fired.
“This is an isolated incident that occurred at a restaurant in South Carolina. The franchisee who owns and operates this restaurant is taking this matter very seriously and acted promptly to dismiss those allegedly involved as soon as they became aware of the situation,” a Wendy’s spokesperson told The Post.
“Their team conducted a thorough review and is working with law enforcement to take appropriate action. This behavior is wholly unacceptable, and not reflective of Wendy’s values, including treating people with respect and doing the right thing.”
All three women were charged by the e Union Public Safety Department with tampering with a human drug product or food item and arrested between June 16 and June 22, according to reports.
