Violence appeared out of nowhere on a New Jersey Burger King.
According to the police, a man entered the restaurant in Wayne and assaulted an employee. While the March 27 incident is still being investigated, the man started an argument with employees at the same Burger King earlier in the day about not wearing a mask.
Wayne Police Department officers arrested David Siversten after locating him near the Newark-Pompton Turnpike, according to a post on the department’s Facebook page. According to the police, when they approached Siversten, he said “You got me.”
