Woman allegedly pulls gun on people waiting in Bellingham McDonald’s drive-thru
A group of people sitting in their car early Sunday at the drive-through of a Bellingham McDonald’s said they called police after an unknown woman pointed a gun at them.
Officers responded to a call that came in at about 1 a.m. May 14 in the 1900 block of King Street in Bellingham, according to Bellingham Police Lt. Claudia Murphy.
All of the people in the vehicle, whose names were withheld by police, told officers they did not know the person who pointed the gun at them and did not know why she did it.
The group described her as a woman in her 20s who was about 5’5” tall. They said she was wearing a sweatshirt and carrying a backpack, Murphy told The Bellingham Herald.
No shots were fired, and there were no injuries, Murphy said.
As of Monday afternoon, police had not made any arrests and did not have a suspect.
The King Street McDonald’s operates a 24-hour drive-through service. The dine-in restaurant is open every day from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m.
