Three Wendy's employees in South Carolina were arrested after allegedly pulling food from the trash, spitting on it, and serving it to a customer who had complained about her initial order. Aaliyah Shuntai Sanders, 23, Trinity Lashell Rice, 19, and Shadela Crystal Holley were each charged with tampering with a human drug product or food item following the incident at a Wendy’s in Union, South Carolina. The arrests occurred separately between June 16 and June 22, according to Fox Carolinas.
The incident took place on May 31 when a customer ordered from the drive-thru but encountered issues with her meal. After requesting a refund, staff members took the food back and offered to remake the order, which the customer accepted. While driving away, the customer received a call from someone at the restaurant informing her that an employee had retrieved her food from a trash can and spat on it. Upon inspection, the customer confirmed the “new” order was the same as her initial one and immediately contacted the police.
The victim also called the store manager, who confirmed speaking with the staff and verifying the allegations. The manager noted that all three employees involved had been written up. Fox News Digital reached out to the fast-food chain for comment but did not receive an immediate response.
