The Golden State Restaurant Group, which owns the McDonald's location the woman went to, has certified each of its restaurants as a 'Safe Place.'
When a woman walked up to the counter of a McDonald's in Lodi, California, the employees likely expected her to order a Big Mac or large fries. Instead, she begged them to help her.
The woman told an employee to call 911, gave them her license plate number and asked them to hide her, San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office said in a Facebook post. A police investigation would later reveal that she was traveling with a man who had a history of abusing her. That day, he had threatened her with a firearm and demanded that she drive him to see his family. After using the McDonald's restroom, the woman tried to approach the counter again to make an order, police said.
