From Associated Press

A woman who ran down a McDonald’s restaurant manager after she didn’t get mayonnaise on her cheeseburger was sentenced to 10 years in prison Thursday for aggravated assault.

Waynetta Nolan, 37, has said she didn’t mean to run over Sherry Jenkins, who was dragged across the fast-food chain’s parking lot during the incident and broke her pelvis.

After ordering at the drive-through window April 23, Nolan became angry after being told the cheeseburgers didn’t come with mayonnaise. Witnesses said she threw the burger back through the window. The manager offered her another burger, but Nolan then complained about her French fries and drink.

When she couldn’t pacify her customer, the manager called police and was told to take down the woman’s license plate number. When she went outside, Nolan hit her with her car.

Nolan testified she was startled by a car horn, accelerated and accidentally hit Jenkins.
