Dayton police are investigating the aggravated menacing complaint after workers said a man in the drive-through window was waving a knife and yelling about chicken tenders.

The female worker told police a man was screaming at the intercom and she could not understand him. When he pulled up to the window, he screamed obscenities at the woman and was yelling about wanting chicken tenders.

The worker shut the window to the drive-through and reported the behavior to her manager, whom called police.

The suspect told the two workers, “I will cut you,” before speeding off.

The case remains under investigation.
