Dispute: A manager at a fast-food restaurant called the police to report a dispute with a customer. When an officer arrived, the customer was stopped in the drive-thru. Other cars were behind her and could not exit. The manager said the customer wanted a large order of fries for free, in addition to the food she already purchased. The manager told the customer she had to pay for fries if she wanted them. The manager said the customer refused to leave the drive-thru lane afterward and had been parked there for 20 minutes.
The customer said she tried to explain to the manager that she could not eat pork, and the manager was rude to her.

The customer eventually agreed to leave the property.
