A Florida resident has been sentenced to four months in prison following a bizarre incident where he leaped shirtless through the drive-thru window of a Taco Bell, brandishing a “large rock” to rob workers and patrons.

The 40-year-old, Kewarren Lee Anderson, was apprehended in July after an Ocala Police Department K9 unit discovered him hiding behind a dumpster.

According to police reports cited by Ocala-News.com, Anderson entered the fast-food restaurant through the drive-thru window, wielding a “large rock” and demanding money from employees and customers. His actions caused everyone inside to flee the premises in fear.

After causing chaos at the Taco Bell, Anderson made a hasty exit but was swiftly located by a police K9 unit.

The man then fled the fast food establishment, but he was quickly tracked down by a K9.

According to body camera footage, Anderson was seen behind the dumpster panicking as he held his hands up in surrender when he was approached by the K9.

It is unclear how much cash Anderson was able to take before running away.

Anderson was homeless during the robbery and told police he needed money, according to an arrest affidavit, News 6 reported.

Just hours after he was taken into custody, Anderson was involved in a physical altercation with another incarcerated person.

Anderson was charged with armed robbery and battery by a person at a detention facility in connection with the two incidents.

He was found guilty on both charges last week and sentenced to four years in prison, excluding the time he had already served in the Marion County Jail.
