Slicin' Up Eyeballs! Oh oh oh!


For the past few months, my friends and I have enjoyed the taste of a delicious M&M McFlurry to beat the summer heat nearly every day. Well, my McFlurry train has come to an end after hearing about an incident in West Philadelphia that cost a man his eyesight.

Read Further, as told by CityPaper:

"Brandon Henderson lost his left eyeball over a McFlurry. On the evening of Feb. 15, authorities say, Khalif Lewis, an 18-year-old cashier at a West Philadelphia McDonald's, attacked the 35-year-old Henderson as he attempted to leave the restaurant after an argument over whether he could substitute a dessert item for french fries. Lewis punched him once in the eye with a key he placed between his fingers, authorities say. (Authorities have a surveillance tape of the incident.) Henderson's eye was ruined, and doctors removed it. Lewis was charged with aggravated assault and possession of an instrument of crime. Lewis has been released on bail and is awaiting trial, and despite having partially blinded a customer, is still working at the McDonald's.." writes City Paper's Mike Newall.

The bad part of me laughed, a lot, about this. The good part says, "That's fucked up!" Read the rest here.
