Police use Taser on woman who blocked drive-thru at McDonald's

HOPE MILLS, N.C. Cumberland County deputies say they used a Taser on a woman who blocked the drive-thru at a McDonalds for 20 minutes after employees refused to serve her because she broke in line.

Authorities say 37-year-old Evangeline Lucca bypassed the order screen and the line at the Hope Mills restaurant, instead pulling directly up to the pick-up window Friday afternoon.

Deputies say employees told the woman they could not take her order and she needed to go to the back of the line. The woman refused to move, and police were called.

Authorities say Lucca was shocked after she blocked the line for 20 minutes. Her 3-year-old daughter was with her and was taken into protective custody.

Lucca was charged with second-degree trespass. A phone listing for her couldn't be found.
