Summary
McDonald’s locations in Altoona, Pennsylvania, and Altoona, Iowa, were flooded with false 1-star reviews after the arrest of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson’s suspected killer at an Altoona, PA, McDonald’s.
Users posted claims of rats, poor service, and references to the employee who reported the suspect.
Some reviews mocked the arrest, calling the location “Narc-donalds” and joking about the staff’s actions.
The surge in reviews appears to be a mix of humor and criticism tied to the high-profile arrest.
“Since the spotting happened in private property, the reward will go to the private owners of said property.”
