McDonald’s staff and customers slap each other to the ground in 12-person fight

A huge fight erupted outside ‘the most terrible McDonald’s in Liverpool’ between staff and customers.

Footage shows around a dozen people scrapping on the pavement outside the fast food chain in Page Moss, Liverpool.

One worker can be heard shouting at a shirtless customer to ‘get off me’ while a lady in a skirt appears to slap a man until he hits the floor.

Other fights happening around them show a woman saying ‘stupid little b***’ and another screaming ‘who the f*** are you touching’.

The cause of the fight remains unclear but police attended the scene where they were seen handcuffing the topless gentleman.

McDonald’s has said the fight came about due to antisocial behaviour – but admitted they were working to ‘remind staff of the appropriate de-escalation processes’.

They said: ‘We are aware of the incident involving anti-social behaviour from a group of customers that has been circulating on social media. 

‘The group were asked to leave the restaurant due to unacceptable behaviour. The police were called and we are supporting them with their enquiries.

‘We are also working with our restaurant team to remind them of the appropriate de-escalation processes we have in place.

‘At McDonald’s, we have a zero-tolerance policy towards anti-social behaviour, and it is completely unacceptable to see anyone behaving in this way.’

Online reviews see mainly one-star ratings, with one person calling it ‘the most terrible McDonald’s in Liverpool’.

Meanwhile, all the way in Canada, a McDonald’s chain was forced to close after a fight broke out with racoons used as weapons.

The outlet, in Ottawa in Canada, was the setting of a viral video in 2013 which saw a raccoon brandished during a mass brawl.

It has been visited by cops ‘hundreds’ of times in the 40 years of its existence, according to local reports. More than 15 men were seen exchanging blows at the premises and throwing items at each other.

In a major twist, one man drew a raccoon from his jacket and entered the fray.
