20-Year-Old Charged with Murder in Fatal Steak ‘n Shake Drive-Thru Shooting Over Onion Rings
A 20-year-old woman has been charged in connection with a deadly shooting outside a St. Louis-area Steak ‘n Shake earlier this month, an incident that began with a disagreement at a drive-thru window and escalated into gunfire, leaving one employee dead and another injured.
Authorities say the April 8 incident unfolded at a restaurant in Spanish Lake, Missouri, when officers were dispatched after reports of gunfire.
Responding crews found two employees had been shot during a confrontation with a customer at the drive-thru.
One worker later died at the scene, while a second employee survived after being struck in the hand and taken for medical treatment.
Investigators describe the encounter as beginning with a dispute over a fast-food order placed at the drive-thru window, which reports say involved an argument over onion rings.
