A McBrawl at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s drive-thru caught on tape.
Local CBS affiliate KDKA reports the shocking details:
“There people in various Halloween costumes – some to mention Cookie Monster, I believe Bert and Ernie and some others,” West View Police Chief Bruce Fromlak said.
One woman was dressed as a sexy serving wench. According to the police complaint, two cars were in line. The black Hummer was at the drive-in window with the people in costume. The driver in the second vehicle, Joseph Kryl, 36, was getting antsy to order his breakfast sandwich.
“The operator of that vehicle yelled out, ‘I’ve been waiting here 10 minutes. Can I go ahead of you?’” Chief Fromlak said.
That’s when Shawn Klinge got out of the Hummer and Joseph Kryl exited his car. It got ugly.
“Words were exchanged, pushing, shoving,” Chief Fromlak said. “Next thing you know, they’re both on the ground.”
The brawl expanded when 31-year-old Olivia Patterson, Kryl’s companion, got out to help him. Then three women exited the Hummer – Casey Ashbaugh, Crystal Dedo and Melinda Klinge.
Police say Melinda Klinge, 28, shattered a rear passenger window in Kryl’s car and bashed Olivia Patterson over the head with a high-heeled boot.
“She got hit in the head repeatedly to the point of unconsciousness,” Chief Fromlak said.
Police found Patterson in convulsions.
“This girl was seizing, having seizures, she was bleeding profusely from the back of the head,” Fromlak said.
WTAE scored an interview with Klinge, who claims she was defending herself:
Police said Klinge, 28, was arrested while still in her costume and taken to jail. She told Channel 4 Action News reporter Keith Jones that the incident was self-defense.
“The guy behind us was just acting crazy and got out of his car,” said Klinge. She added, “I guess because I’m not the one with the most injuries, I’m automatically the bad guy.”
“I just feel that it‘s a nightmare that I just can’t wake up out of,” she said.
Watch the surveillance video of the drive-thru melee below:
Patterson was taken to a local hospital where it took six staples to close her head wound, KDKA reports.
Melinda Klinge has been charged with simple and aggravated assault, but police say other charges are still pending.

the costumes are irrelevant: under the mask is an animal who will break your skull with her shoe because you honked your horn. Ms Patterson is going to brain damaged for life from this beating.

Posted on November 7, 2011 at 12:18pmI think the lesson is that what you see all around you sometimes appears to be normal and well organized…then suddenly everything erupts in violence. Why? The people have no shame, no pity, no remorse, just react without thinking of any consequences because in their world none exist. Trust no one until they have earned your trust and even then be wary.

Posted on November 7, 2011 at 8:27amnot llooking to lay blame, but the guy in the second car could have parked and gone inside and been out quicker than waiting 10 minutes in drive-thru line. this doesn’t excuse the assault though.

Report Post »In this case NOT. What do you call someone in this age group who behaves in this manner??? Spoiled, Arrogant, or just un-civil?? This group is scary since they are the children of the sons and daughters of persons who are now in their real golden years. The golden year people, who once brought about civility, and are the most patriotic group of this country. What will the children of this generation be like (should they chose to have any children of their own). I am not really asking since I already know. You answer these questions, as you prepare for a scary violent future.

Posted on November 7, 2011 at 1:21pmActually there was a lot more violence in the early ’90s. Wanna be gangsters killing each other in the street, car jackings and driveby shootings. I remember the crack wars that were waged here in Houston also. I see this younger generation as a lot more docile than what Gen-x was but that is probably due to the skinny jeans wearing metrosexual lady gaga fanboys I see when I go to the mall.

If I feel I HAVE to pull my concealed firearm, the only way there will be “winged” survivors is if my aim is off.
Even then, I will correct it on the spot.

Posted on November 7, 2011 at 7:10amOK, I’m confused. Olivia got out to help her boyfriend, the guy in the second vehicle. BUT, Melinda broke a rear window and bashed her in the head with a high heel? If she’s out of the vehicle helping her boyfriend, how can she be in the car to get her head bashed in?

The guy in the car behind them was yelling and honking his horn to “hurry” them up, sounds like drive thru rage to me. Plus, who doesn’t enjoy a good cat fight on Halloween? At least they didn’t have a McShooting during this incident..

Posted on November 7, 2011 at 6:48amPolice Chief Bruce Fromlak needs some help here. There is no Cookie Monster in this incident. The identity of the associate perp is Elmo, you can tell because he is red, not blue. Now, for the teachable moment.
Here at the McDonalds drive-through we have a group of people completely devoid of European-descended males, establishing a new social order. It is not necessarily pretty. But the candy-corn witch clearly comes across as the Alpha. Good for her and her progeny.
In other news, here is a 2008 Obama video, also devoid of European-descended males with the exception of the guy tooting the flute, who clearly appears to be a homosexual, not like there is anything wrong with that.
Hope and Change baby.
