Three men in Florida have been charged following a late-night confrontation at a McDonald’s that escalated into a shooting incident.

Yoan Soto, 21, was on duty during the overnight hours at a McDonald’s in Davenport when he encountered Peter Story, 19, and Nicholas Jones, 18, at the drive-thru. Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd detailed the incident in a Facebook video, describing how several events had concluded early on October 12, leading to a rush at the fast-food restaurant. Due to high demand, Soto informed Story and Jones that the restaurant was no longer taking orders.

This news apparently did not sit well with Story and Jones, according to the police report.

An affidavit reviewed by Law&Crime revealed that the two became “argumentative” and exchanged heated words with Soto through the drive-thru intercom. Soto’s manager recounted to police that Soto claimed the young men threatened to “beat his a—.” Sheriff Judd stated that Story and Jones allegedly mentioned they were armed, prompting Soto to respond that he also had a firearm. The affidavit notes that Story and Jones warned Soto they would be waiting in the parking lot after his shift ended.

As Soto relayed the tense exchange to his manager, Story and Jones reportedly entered the McDonald’s, continuing the confrontation face-to-face. Sheriff Judd humorously referred to the incident as a “McArgument over McHamburgers or the lack thereof” in his video commentary.

The verbal altercation soon became heated, and Soto’s manager told police that Story and Jones “reference firearms” while inside the restaurant, allegedly mentioning a “30 clip” and “switches.” Judd stated, “They’re threatening to McShoot up the place.”

According to the arrest affidavits for Story and Jones, Soto’s manager then told the two that they had to leave the store. The two men allegedly refused to leave, saying that only law enforcement could force them out.

While Soto’s manager attempted to deescalate the situation, Soto can be seen on surveillance video going to the employee break room, according to the affidavit. Soto then comes back, pointing a gun at Story and Jones to herd them out of the restaurant. During a physical confrontation, Soto’s gun discharged and hit Story in the neck, causing a non-life-threatening injury. The two customers fled the restaurant to take Story to the hospital, Judd said.

Soto then allegedly picked up the spent shell casing from the floor, telling another employee that “it belonged to him.” Judd said in the Facebook video that while Soto “has a right to stand his ground and protect himself,” he allegedly tried to tamper with evidence by collecting the shell casing.

Judd said, “It’s never okay to threaten a mass shooting. It’s never okay to threaten to beat people up at a business. And it’s never okay to grab your ammunition and your firearm and run after a shooting.”

Soto was charged with tampering with evidence and was arrested at his home on Oct. 14. He posted bond and was released. His arraignment is scheduled for Nov. 18.

Story and Jones were each charged with disorderly conduct and trespassing. Both were arrested and posted bond. Story is scheduled to be arraigned on Oct. 31; Jones is scheduled to be arraigned on Nov. 20.
