 Digital Desk: According to media and authorities, a man in New York has
been charged with attempted murder after reportedly shooting a McDonald's
employee for allegedly delivering his mother cold french fries.

In the Big Apple, numerous shooting events happen every day.

 in this most recent
incident, 20-year-old Michael Morgan shot the 23-year-old McDonald's employee
in Brooklyn on Monday night.

Hospital staff report
that the victim is in critical condition.

The victim and a
40-year-old lady got into a fight over the victim giving her cold fries,
according to the tabloid, and that's how the altercation began.

Before the two of them
left the fast food restaurant, the woman placed a video call to her son Morgan,
who suddenly barged inside and started arguing with the worker.

According to a police source quoted by the Post, Morgan then
shot the employee.

According to the tabloid, the accused has been detained
multiple times for different offences.

According to a New York Police Department official who spoke
to AFP, Morgan was also charged with criminal possession of a loaded handgun.

 According to the NYPD's weekly figures, the number of
shooting victims in New York is down from 1,051 to 988, or nearly 9%, from the
previous year.

The Small Arms Survey organisation found that there are
roughly 120 weapons for every 100 people in the US.

According to the Gun Violence Archive, more than 45,000
persons were killed by weapons in 2020, with suicide accounting for half of
those deaths.
