North Carolina Pastor Arrested In Bizarre Incident At McDonalds, Police Records Show
57-year-old pastor Dwayne Waden was reportedly arrested by High Point law enforcement after a bizarre incident took place at a McDonald’s on Thursday.
According to reports, police responded to a call at the McDonald’s where the pastor allegedly attempted to stick an employee’s head into a deep fryer.
The incident reportedly occurred due to Waden’s wife, a manager-in-training at the fast-food franchise, telling her husband that her co-workers were disrespecting her.
Waden has been charged with assault and battery, though he has not been convicted of any crime.
Below is the police report detailing the incident at the High Point McDonald’s:
Fox News had more details:
Waden also punched the victim several times in the face, police allege, and did not stop striking the victim until multiple employees were able to pull Waden off of the victim.
The victim reportedly suffered a “large contusion” to the forehead and right eye, police wrote, as well as scratches on his neck.
Below is a picture of Waden and a snapshot of his FaceBook profile that indicates he is married, a semi-truck driver, as well as a pastor with Elevated Life International Ministries.
Business Insider reported on the status of the victim following the alleged assault by Waden:
Emergency services were called to the scene, but his family took him to a hospital for treatment.
Waden did not stop the assault until several employees pulled him off of the victim and restrained him until police arrived, police said.
