my san antonio- The price of the Beefy Crunch Burrito had gone up from 99 cents to $1.49 and the man at the Rigsby Road Taco Bell drive-thru had just ordered seven.
The fast food customer was so disgruntled by the price hike he shot an air gun at the manager, displayed a semiautomatic assault rifle and pistol while in the restaurant's parking lot, fled as police were called, exchanged gunfire with three officers who pulled him over, then barricaded himself in his hotel room — all over $3.50 plus additional tax.
The final incident in the burrito-triggered spree happened Sunday afternoon at the Rodeway Inn on North W.W. White Road, engaging SWAT negotiators in a more than three-hour standoff, according to officials and witnesses.
The man, whose name was not released because he had not been charged, faces three attempted capital murder charges for the exchange of gunfire with police plus possible other charges, said police spokesman Sgt. Chris Benavides. No one was injured in the incident.
The suspect was taken into custody about 6:45 p.m. Sunday after officials used tear gas to get him out of the motel room where he was staying. Police recovered the rifle and two handguns, Benavides said.
Taco Bell has got some fucking nerve raising the price by over 50%. What is their reason for doing this? It's not like beef prices have gone up recently. Shit, the "beef" they use at Taco Bell is only 30% beef anyways. The manager is lucky this guy only used his air gun on him. This dude was down on his luck, living at the Rodeway Inn with nothing to do but drive around town with an arsenal of automatic weapons. The only thing that was going to cheer him up was seven beefy crunch burritos from the Bell. Not 5, not 6, but 7. I bet he only had enough money for seven at the old price. Now some pimply face punk at the drive-thru window tells him it's going to cost an extra $3.50? Bull shit! He could buy a whole other meal for that much. Something like that could lead even the most rational person to a 3 hour stand off with the cops. I don't really like Taco Bell, but I'll tell you right now, if I go to the bar this Friday, and all of a sudden the price of a beer has gone up by 50%, there's gonna be hell to pay.
