Woman jailed for firing gun at McDonald's when she didn't get bacon in her burger TWICE

She will serve 3-7 years.

AN AMERICAN WOMAN has been jailed after she fired her gun at a McDonald’s when staff didn’t put bacon in her burger twice.

Shaneka Torres first became annoyed after she discovered that a burger she ordered at a Michigan drive through in February 2014 was missing bacon.

The 30-year-old was offered a free meal as an apology, but when the second burger came without bacon, she became very angry.

West Michigan Fox 17 reports that police said Torres then fired a shot through the restaurant but no one was injured.

Torres was found guilty in March and she has now been sentenced to 1-5 years for shooting at a building, plus two years for possessing a firearm during a felony.

Torres said she was sorry “but it’s over and done with”.

She isn’t allowed to visit McDonald when she immediately gets out of prison.
