Cold Burger King onion rings yielded a taser, knife and lawsuit

A New Mexico man is suing Burger King after he says a manager attacked him for complaining about cold onion rings. The lawsuit filed in state district court says Robert Deyapp was assaulted in June 2013 when he told a manager at the fast-food restaurant in the northwestern New Mexico city of Bloomfield about his cold order. It claims that when Deyapp asked for a refund, manager Francisco Berrera lunged at him with a stun gun and switchblade. DeYapp sued Berrera, Burger King, and several Burger King associates for the incident. Courthouse News reported that Berrera pleaded guilty to felony assault with a deadly weapon in the Oct. 1 lawsuit in San Juan County Court.
