What the Heck is Happening in East Lansing? [WATCH]
I don't know what it is about food delivery service, but sometimes I feel like it's the wild wild west out there.
Food Delivery Service Horror Stories
You hear all these crazy stories about delivery personnel leaving food at the end of the driveway, or eating it on the way to the delivery destination. But never had I heard a story like this one before.
Shout out to my friend and co-worker who sent me this video after coming across it on TikTok.

Crazy TikTok Video Out of East Lansing
East Lansing. A couple of gals needed a late-night snack, so they used Uber Eats to order McDonald's delivered. And when the delivery driver (or more specifically, bicyclist, as it appears in the video) arrived with the food, he also had some tea to spill. Watch the video below, but be aware, it's a tad NSFW.
You heard that right; when the Uber Eats employee was at the McDonald's to pick up the food, someone at the McDonald's drew a gun on somebody else.
I'm so happy that the girls asked him if he was okay, because he seemed to be in a bit of shock, or perhaps a bit too high to realize the dangers of that situation. And, it needs to be said, this dude went above and beyond in his duty.
East Lansing McDonald's Held at Gunpoint
This video was posted on September 23rd, 2023. With that in mind, I did some hunting to figure out which location this might have been, as it's not mentioned in the Ring footage that @ameliawells23 posted to her TikTok.
The only thing I could find that it might be related to is this story from WLNS, detailing a shooting that left one person injured, and that injured person was located by police near the intersection of Saginaw Street and Coolidge Road, which has a McDonald's right nearby.

Hopefully, everyone that was involved in that situation is okay. What a terrifying moment to be a part of.
