NEWNAN, Ga. — An argument in the drive-thru of a fast-food restaurant in Newnan ended with gunfire but no injuries, police said on Sunday.
Newnan Police Deputy Chief Mark Cooper said that officers are gathering information after the shots were fired at the McDonald's located at 58 Bullsboro Drive in Newnan.
According to police, a driver in a car was waiting on food when the man, later identified as Brandon Causey, walked in between the building and the driver's side door of the car. Police said Causey put his drinks and other items on top of the car and began to argue with the woman "for no apparent reason," police said.
Police said the woman tried to get out of the car, but Causey began to choke her, police said. As she tried to stop him, police said she pulled out a gun and fired two shots into the air. Police said at this point, Causey released her and waited for officers to arrive.
Now, according to police, Causey is facing charges for aggravated assault and is in the Coweta County Jail. However, police said Causey is facing an additional charge for allegedly providing police with a false identify when he was arrested.
