A McDonald’s manager was arrested early Wednesday after he was caught serving customers a side of cocaine with their burgers and fries.
Frank Guerrero, 26, was captured by authorities after they received a tip on the suspicious matter and sent an undercover cop to the fast food joint located on Bruckner Boulevard in Soundview, Bronx.
Authorities said Guerrero sold eight quantities of the drug to the undercover cop, including $10,900 worth of cocaine in one instance and 100 grams of crack cocaine worth up to $6,520 in another, according to ABC 7 New York.

Guerrero reportedly stuffed the drugs inside the bathroom’s soap dispenser until clients arrived to purchase them from him.
Special Narcotics Prosecutor Bridget G. Brennan said in a statement the ‘conduct was so blatant it would be comical if he weren’t committing a serious narcotics crime.’
She added: ‘Ordering coke took on an entirely different meaning on the night shift at this McDonald’s.’
Guerro worked at the Bronx McDonald’s for about eight years before he was sacked following his night shift Wednesday when authorities found evidence through surveillance that the drug sales were going on for three months.
