Patrons toss dead cat through drive-thru
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (AP) -- An employee working the drive-through window at a McDonald's will have a tale to tell. When the worker went to the open window thinking the car pulling up had already ordered, the people in the car threw a dead cat through the window, police said.
Cedar Rapids Animal Control officer Matt McAtee said the black domestic shorthair appeared to have been dead for a while.
"It looked like somebody had picked it up off the road," McAtee said.
Police were called to the restaurant about 8:45 p.m. Tuesday.
The people in the car drove off. A description of the car was not available, but employees knew the people in the car, police said.
No charges had been filed. The investigation was continuing.
McDonald's officials declined comment.
