New details have emerged concerning the arrest of a 13-year-old girl outside a McDonald’s in Liscard, United Kingdom.
The arrest was initially linked to the controversial “5 pm rule,” a policy introduced at select McDonald’s locations across the UK in 2022 to curb the rising antisocial behavior. The rule bars minors under 18 from dining in after 5 pm unless accompanied by an adult.
Now, entertainment outlets are claiming the girl and her classmates were served food around 4:50 pm but attempted to dine in. After being informed that they had to leave, the 13-year-old allegedly threw a tantrum and began hurling insults at staff.
