A Charleston, S.C., teen says he was given a loaded handgun and bags of marijuana in his McDonald's drive-thru order, WCSC-TV reports. The 18-year-old and his cousin received the .45-caliber handgun and the pot on Aug. 29 at a McDonald's on Savannah Highway.
"The gun and the marijuana was inside of a brown bag sitting inside of a McDonald's bag," said Kathy Rivera, the mother of the teen. "And they noticed they had three bags, and there were only two people in the car, so when he opened it, he noticed it."
The gun and drugs were meant for the car behind theirs in the drive-thru line, police said. The car followed the young men to a gas station, where one man approached the teen and demanded he give them the McDonald's bags, which the teen did. He told his mother about the incident the next day, and she contacted the restaurant.
A police report was filed. Charleston police tell Slashfood they're still investigating, though no arrests have been made.

There is too much behavior lately with Kanye, Serena Williams and Joe Wilson. We need more positive role models like Alex Young. Check her out at myspace.com/alexyoung1 Finally someone edgy, new, talented and respectable.

Call McDonald's ( 1-800-244-6227 ) and let them know how you feel about the fact they're selling out our country.

A couple kids make up a story, and we are all taking it for truth, and commenting on it! How do 'reliable' sources feed us this crap, and why we believe? What a Country!

They were underage doing whatever and were scared to call the cops. Thinking they might be implicated. Something like this happened to me once. Boyfriend was driving. Drunk as hell. I saw a terrible crime. He would not pull over to call the cops. I was terrified and cried myself to sleep.

Many times a child, caught with a weapon at school, will tell authorities that he "found the weapon on the way to school." As a former cop, I can tell you that not once has any of these stories been true. Most of these weapons came from home. (older brother, etc.) That being said,... Don't you think this made for a good media story? Wow. A picture of the McDonalds bag and everything. An urban myth in the making!
