Waffle House cook kills customer

waffle house shooterA cook at Waffle House shoots and kills a customer who perhaps threw water in his face. Was the customer wrong, absolutely. Was it worth killing someone? Absolutely not. Now two families have had their lives changed forever, and for what?

“Customers reportedly watched in horror as the scene unfolded at 4:30 a.m. at a Waffle House in Fulton County, Ga., the report says.

Police charged Martin with murder, WSB-TV reports.”
