A McDonald's employee, Joshua Daryl McGregor, was sentenced to five years in prison for setting a fire at the restaurant in April 2023 in Savannah, Georgia.
Frustrated by the large number of customers, McGregor ignited a piece of cardboard and threw it into a dumpster filled with flammable materials outside the restaurant.
The intense fire forced customers in the drive-through to retreat and led to a temporary closure of the restaurant while the Savannah Fire Department extinguished the blaze.
Identified through surveillance footage, McGregor was arrested by Savannah Police and pled guilty to arson in May in US District Court.
The case was investigated by the Savannah Fire Department, Savannah Police Department, and ATF, and prosecuted by Southern District of Georgia Special Assistant U.S. Attorney Makeia R Jonese.
