Fast Food Worker Throws Hot Oil, Burns Customer
Customer Has Second And Third-Degree Burns
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania -- An argument over service at a local fast food restaurant ended with a customer getting a lot more than she ordered.
Vouncile Lambert pulled up for a burger and fries at a pick-up window at a Checkers restaurant in West Philadelphia.
Instead, she left with second- and third-degree burns to her upper body.
Lambert blames a not-so-courteous fast food employee who had been fighting with a customer in front of her.
Lambert said the girl first dumped a soda on her, and as she spoke to a manager about the incident, the girl returned with hot oil.
"That's when the young lady came from behind with a cup of oil and just threw it through the pick-up window," Lambert said.
Lambert has hired a lawyer.
A manager at Checkers told NBC 10 the employee has been fired. She's also been charged with aggravated and simple assault, as well as reckless endangerment.
