Video shows customer pepper-spraying 18-year-old drive-thru worker after long wait

The 18-year-old worker quit after being targeted with pepper spray by a customer upset over slow service, Milwaukee police say no arrests yet.

  • On March 4, a customer pepper-sprayed 18-year-old Vaida Fedikovich at Rocky Rococo on South Howell Avenue, prompting her to quit the job the next day.
  • Fedikovich said she believes the customer targeted her because the order took too long and the customer told her to 'learn' her 'manners' and called her the 'B' word.
  • Fedikovich said, 'My heart is still pounding being here at this location' and described the spray as feeling like cayenne pepper with burning eyes and face.
  • Milwaukee Police Department said they have not made any arrests and blurred the customer's face because she has not been charged, while Rocky Rococo is cooperating with authorities and concerned for its former team member.
  • Local TV coverage amplified the footage as WISN 12 News and TMJ4 broadcast it, with WISN reporter T.J. Dice covering the story, while Newsweek reported similar attacks and contacted Milwaukee Police Department.
