Hendricks was apprehended by the officers, who subsequently interviewed the staff.

According to an employee's account to the authorities, the incident commenced when Hendricks, while in the drive-thru, became agitated, purportedly feeling entitled to a complimentary cookie as the rewards program wasn't offered to her. Despite being given the free cookie, Hendricks persisted in arguing, as stated by the workers.

As per the worker's statement to the police, while Hendricks was shouting at the staff, she seized a black firearm, loaded a magazine, and racked the slide.
