 It happened in October, but the suspect was just taken into custody by U.S. Marshals. 
 
 FWC officials say 23-year-old Joshua James pulled up for his order and after a server handed over a drink and turned around James reached into the back of his truck and tossed the 3-and-a-half foot gator through the drive-thru window. 
 
 
 
 The incident report showed a picture of the gator inside the restaurant. 
 
 James faces charges of aggravated assault and unlawful possession and transportation of an alligator. 
 
 FWC said James admitted to picking up the gator on the side of Southern Boulevard and bringing it to the fast food restaurant. 
 
 During his first court appearance Tuesday morning a judge ordered James to stay out of all Wendy's restaurants, to avoid contact or possession with any animals other than his mother's dog, to undergo a mental health evaluation and to avoid possessing any weapons. If he fails a random drug and alcohol test his bond will be rescinded. Bond was set at $6,000. 
 
 The alligator was later released in a nearby canal. ||||| A Florida man who allegedly hurled an alligator through a Wendy's drive-thru window has been taken into custody, records showed.

 RICHMOND, Va. -- Have you heard the expression “hangry?” It’s a combination of hungry and angry. A fast food worker said that word perfectly described the customer who attacked and bit her over a wrong order. 
 
 Wendy's manager Latanya Nelson said the confrontation happened at the Wendy's restaurant on Brook Road, near Azalea Avenue, Monday night. 
 
 In fact, Nelson said 25-year-old Lovely Robinson was the angriest customer she had ever personally served. Nelson said Robinson stormed in the lobby behind another employee, after changing her order from two spicy chicken sandwiches. 
 
 "She changed the order from that to four, 99-cent chicken sandwiches, so I'm guessing she only had $4 instead of $11," Nelson said. 
 
 The fast food manager said she had no choice but to defend herself. 
 
 "She came in cursing and said I'll come across the counter,” Nelson added. “So I said, ‘OK.’ She jumped over, so I defended myself." 
 
 "She didn't have me in size, but she had heart I'll give her that,” Nelson said. "I told her you can't be in here. You gotta’ go." 
 
 The two threw haymakers in the area where they cook hot fries. Nelson said she couldn't believe what came next. 
 
 "She clamped down right above my knee, so I continued to punch her as she was biting me," she said. 
 
 The attack left a large bite mark above Nelson’s left knee, after Nelson was finally able to fight Robinson off. 
 
 Police charged Robinson with malicious wounding, intentionally damaging property, preventing law enforcement from making an arrest and trespassing. She declined a request for an interview. 
 
 Nelson said she returned to work Tuesday night.
– A dispute over the freshness of Wendy’s fries leaves a 25-year-old Minnesota woman facing criminal charges. According to CBS Minnesota, Wendy's employees claim that Eiram Chanel Amir Dixson became argumentative during a drive-thru transaction just after noon Thursday after the woman asked specifically for fresh French fries. Reports don't specify the condition of the fries, or whether she even received them, but do make clear that an argument followed. Employees allege Dixson reached through the drive-thru window and, after an employee threw a soft drink at her, proceeded to spray them with Mace. The restaurant manager was hit directly in the face while two more employees were also in the line of the spray, per the police report. All three employees provided similar accounts of the incident, according to ABC News 5. Dixson is being charged with felony use of tear gas to immobilize. If found guilty, she’ll face a maximum sentence of up to five years in prison and/or a $3,000 to $10,000 fine. Wendy’s drive-thrus see their share of action: last year, a worker was allegedly bit over a wrong order in Virginia, while a Florida man reportedly threw an alligator through a drive-thru window as a prank.
