A tragic incident unfolded today in Macomb County, where a Michigan McDonald's manager lost her life after being fatally stabbed by a co-worker.

Reports indicate that during the altercation at the Eastpointe McDonald’s, a customer fired a gun, trying to step in and stop the chaos.

According to Click On Detroit, the employee was sent home by the manager following an argument. Unfortunately, the situation took a tragic turn when the employee later came back to the restaurant with a knife. A witness, who also works at that McDonald’s, shared what they saw during the horrifying moment

When I came out of the freezer, I heard a bunch of commotion. A couple of girls came by screaming and hollering

That is when he realized it was a stabbing. I don’t think anyone can fully understand how traumatic it would be to witness something like that unless they were there.

A customer was able to catch and hold the woman accused of the attack until the police showed up. Thankfully, the customer wasn’t hurt, which is a relief, since stepping in during a situation like this does not always end well.

The victim later passed at a nearby hospital. My thoughts are with her family and friends as they deal with this horrific situation.

At this time, the names of both the victim and the accused have not been released to the public.
