Police in Miami claim that 42-year-old Natasha Ethel Bagley was arrested after being denied free French fries in a Miami Burger King. Miami's NBC affiliate reports that Bagley went through the drive-thru and demanded free fries. When the restaurant refused, Bagley and a 27-year-old woman named Genesis Peguero entered the restaurant. Bagley caused a scene while Peguero hopped the counter and then demanded the money in the cash register. Peguero then threatened the manager, claiming she had a pistol and would beat her with it. 

The manager attempted to call police but was stopped when Peguero grabbed the phone from her and punched her in the face. Bagley joined in attacking the manager and Peguero closed out the scene by knocking the registers off the counter. While Bradley has been booked and is currently being held without bond, Peguero is still at large.

The story is the second viral Florida fast food story in a week, with the internet marveling at a video of a Wendy's employee bathing in the kitchen sink of the restaurant in Milton.
