woman wrecks taco bell over free food

A woman started trashing a California Taco Bell location after the restaurant reportedly refused to give her any free food.

Taco Bell’s affordable items have been a hit with customers despite the occasional menu hiccup such as the Baja Blast Pie, but one woman made employees’ lives a living hell when she couldn’t get any food.

In a video making waves on social media, a woman at a Taco Bell at Division and Palmdale Blvd in Palmdale, California was furious about not getting any free tacos.

The shocking footage, seemingly filmed by an employee, shows the woman emptying trash all over the floor while ignoring staff demanding that she leave the premises.

Footage of the incident was originally uploaded to Instagram by Avscannernews with the caption, “Customer upset over not getting free food.”

“You gotta get out!” the staff yelled as the woman dumped garbage out of a bag.

“I didn’t let you starve. I didn’t let you get hurt. I was there for you. I built this town!” she cried. “Get the hell out!”

As the angry customer threw the garbage bin at staff, she ended up tripping and falling before picking it up and tossing it across the counter successfully.

After a bit more yelling, the video eventually ended with one employee saying the police were on their way. It’s not known if the woman was arrested or if she faces any charges.

This is hardly the first customer freakout to go viral on social media. Last year, a man destroyed a McDonald’s in a fit of rage all over two bags of fries.
