Wisconsin man fired after video shows him making racist threats while wearing uniform at a McDonald’s restaurant

A security guard was fired from his job immediately after a video appeared on the Internet showing him making racial threats and verbally abusing a McDonald’s worker.

According to Wisconsin State JournalAdam Rivers was fired from his entry-level position at the private security agency Star Protection and Patrol after he was caught on camera at a McDonald’s in Madison, Wisconsin, threatening to call a fast food worker to call federal immigration agents.

The video was posted to Reddit by user ActualMikeQuieto, who explained that he began recording Rivers when he noticed him threatening employees.

“(Employees) were understaffed and worked as fast as they could.” Quieto wrote within the caption. “This guy came out of the driveway, parked, went back behind the counter into the kitchen and announced, ‘I’m getting ICE.’ I started filming when I realized that he hadn’t just been inappropriate and bought his own frozen water. He treated me brutally for filming him.”

The video shows Rivers complaining concerning the service and threatening to call Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at the McDonald’s, before threatening to fight Quieto.

“You will have ICE here today. I hope everyone here has their papers, bro, because I’m sick of this shit,” Rivers could be heard telling the worker.

Heading for the exit, Rivers quotes web personality Bhad Bhabie and tells Quieto, “Put the food down and catch me outside, how about this! Do you desire to catch me on these streets?

Rivers is a latest worker at Star Protection and Patrol, which reportedly works with local government agencies once in a while. He worked there for lower than three weeks before he was fired. He was off duty at the time the video was recorded.

“Putting racism into a work uniform is wiiilllllldddddd,” one person commented.

“Thank you for posting this and bringing awareness to the community. It’s a shame you and others had to deal with this. How terrible,” one other Reddit user added.

The agency posted a statement on its Facebook page the identical day the video was posted to Reddit, confirming that Rivers had been fired from his position.
