According to a police report, Mendiola came to the store at 7301 Lemont Rd. around 9:20 a.m. to return uniforms that had been placed in a garbage bag. The store's general manager told police Mendiola had been "behaving erratically" and was advised not to come back to the restaurant after he was fired.

Police say Mendiola told the manager, "Hey, I'm here to return my uniform" and put the trash bag on the counter. He is then accused of saying, "I'm gonna get you b***hes."
