MNPD: Man burns McDonald's employee with hot coffee after getting mad at it being "watery"

Metro Police arrested a man they say intentionally spilled hot coffee on a McDonald's employee after getting angry over the coffee being "too watery."

Charles Prince, 59, allegedly ordered coffee at the McDonald's in the Gulch on Thrusday and got angry that the coffee tasted watered down. Prince asked if they any stronger coffee, and the employee told him the restaurant brews their coffee daily.

That's when the man became angry and knocked over a large cup of coffee on the counter without a lid. The hot liquid poured on another employee and left visible burn marks on her arm.

Witnesses told police how the situation unfolded and Prince was charged with assault. He was booked in the Davidson County jail but has since posted bail.
