Texas Chick-fil-A Employee Accused of Stealing Over $80K in Shocking Scheme Involving Side Orders
Published by RawNews1st
Police in Grapevine say a former Chick-fil-A employee is accused of stealing more than $80,000 by fraudulently refunding transactions to himself.
Police say Keyshun Jones was let go from the restaurant in October. The next month, police say surveillance video shows Jones behind the counter unattended, ringing up 800 trays of mac and cheese. Officers say he then refunded more than $80,000 to his personal credit cards.
Police say he evaded arrest multiple times; however, investigators caught up with him earlier this month. He is charged with theft, money laundering and evading arrest.
Police said the owner reported the theft and shared surveillance footage that appeared to show Jones unattended behind the counter. Jones was apparently let go a month before the video footage was captured.
The video appears to show Jones using the register to ring up 800 orders of mac-and-cheese trays, then refunding them to his personal credit cards.
Police said the transaction resulted in more than $80,000 being stolen from the restaurant.
Jones reportedly evaded arrest several times but was taken into custody on April 17, with the assistance of the Texas Attorney General’s Fugitive Task Force and the Fort Worth Police Department.
