Burger King Funny News
Some drive-through customers at a Burger King are getting more with their meals than they expected.
Police in the north Detroit suburb are looking for someone who is using a device to broadcast on the same frequency as a Burger King drive-through speaker, The Detroit News reported Thursday.
The person has interrupted business transactions three times, most recently Tuesday, with obscene remarks to startled customers.
When the 41-year-old manager went outside to apologize to customers and look for the source of the mischief, a voice boomed out of the outdoor speaker: "There's nothing you or the police can do about this, so get ... back inside and take your goons with you," Troy Police Lt. Gerry Scherlinck said.
Police suspect the calls are being made by a radio transmitter or walkie-talkie near the restaurant. The person could be charged with a misdemeanor if caught.
Kevin Barnes, a spokesman for Michigan Multi King, which owns the restaurant, said his company wants to keep the incidents low-key.
"It's rare, but I've heard this has happened at other businesses," he said.
