Why they didnt refund the money Ill never know. but to call 911 three times????
FORT PIERCE, Fla. (AP) -- Authorities say a Florida woman called 911 three times after McDonald's employees told her they were out of Chicken McNuggets.

According to a police report, 27-year-old Fort Pierce resident Latreasa L. Goodman told authorities she paid for a 10-piece last week but was later informed the restaurant had run out.
She says employees refused to give her a refund, saying all sales were final. A cashier told police she offered Goodman a larger portion of different food for the same price, but Goodman became irate.
Police say Goodman was cited on a misuse of 911 charge. A current phone listing for Goodman couldn't be found.
A McDonald's spokeswoman said the company didn't immediately have a comment on the incident.
NOBODY needs to eat 10 chicken nuggets. That's dare food.
I saw her on TV. Last thing she needed was a 10 pc. They were doing her heart a favor.
I think McD's needs to implement a minimum IQ standard for customers.
sue for coffee? no E36 M3
911 because of no nuggets? I hope no one actually had an emergency.
For six months there was no way to communicate with the Lansing Police Department except FOR the 911 line.
If you called the police over McNuggets they should shoot you when they get there. This is why I avoid fast food, it had nothing to do with the awful food, but when there are three or four mensa members ahead of you you're not getting anything fast.
McNuggets are one of the few foods from McDs that my body can handle without an immediate need to run to the bathroom
As a matter of principle, this is a stupid reason to call 911. But as a matter of principle, if I pay for something, and you don't have it, if I ask for my money back, you have to give it to me.
I say both parties involved are idiots.

Ha! A lifetime of eating REAL spicy food has given me an iron stomach. I can handle any fast food - even Taco Hell (although my tongue and nose have a big problem with that) without running to the bathroom.
Real Mexican, Jamaican or Indian food on the other hand...it's just a timebomb waiting to go off.
Ugh my stomach turns at just the thought of McNuggets.
And exactly where on a chicken is the "nugget" found?
Don't remember who the comic was:
'You ever seen a part of a chicken called a nugget?'
EDIT: Let's examine for a moment how much stupidity was involved here.
First, the employee who (I guess) didn't bother to inform the others that they were out of McNuggets.
Second, the employee who may have been told they were out but took the order anyway.
Third, Employee #2 wouldn't refund the money for an unavailable product.
Fourth, I suppose the 'manager' would have had to be involved and wouldn't authorize the refund either.
Fifth, the aggrieved customer who called 911 not once but three times.
That's a helluva lot of stupidity. Like Wally says, Mensa members.
Fact: McNuggests are breaded cardboard.
Why would anyone willingly eat that?

It's not the stomach on me that is rotten.. it's everything below that. I need to buy stock in charmin.
And yes.. While I do not buy at McDs often, I never saw a sign saying "no refunds"

I am a Mensa member. I don't eat ANYTHING at McDonalds. That is not an indication of intellegence, just common sence.

Let's give him a second chance on intellegence, too.
But, in the end, it may not mean that much:

Round these here parts if you bring a half eaten burger back to the counter and say something is wrong with it they will give you a refund. I call BS on the refusal of a refund. I'm not defending McSlease or the patron, I just realise there are three sides to every dispute. Yours, Mine, and the Truth.
sometimes, well a lot recently, I can really appreciate the value in the dollar menu. What I would like is for, whichever African or Central American that is taking my order to differentiate between the number 2, and the number 3. No, I do not want 3 McChickens, just 2. No, 2, not 3. Holding up two fingers, English style for effect, 2, not farkin' 3. Oh feck, just give me 3, what? 2? aarrrrrrrrgggggggggghhhhhhhh!!!
I gave Rufus nuggets once, had the hershey squirts for two days.
follow up to the story, she's embarrassed.

That means she will sue the national news outlets for hurting her feelings, i.e. 'emotional distress'. We all know that no one is supposed to be made to feel shame for their actions no matter how stupid they were.
I've eaten McNuggets exactly twice. The second time was years after the first and was to verify they were as bad as I thought. They were.
