A man has filed a wrongful-death lawsuit against McDonald’s after he says his wife was fatally attacked at an L.A. restaurant and employees did nothing to help. What is a common and usually uneventful interaction in Los Angeles turned into a bloody confrontation with tragic results. According to a lawsuit filed by Rangel against McDonald’s last week, he and his wife were attacked by the man and McDonald’s employees failed to intervene or call for help. Green approached vehicles and asked for money in front of the McDonald’s employees, who didn’t intervene or hire any security personnel for the restaurant, the suit says. The McDonald’s employees saw what happened but didn’t call 911 or take any action to respond, the lawsuit alleges.
