I scream for ice cream

Trespass. Police issued a trespass warning to a 59-year-old Ormond Beach man due to repeated inappropriate conduct at a local fast food chain restaurant.

According to a police incident report, the restaurant manager called police after the man went through the drive-thru and was denied service due to past incidents, which include him going inside the restaurant and yelling for ice cream. The restaurant staff did not call police in the past.

Though management asked him to leave the restaurant, the man only left after a customer asked him to. Police located the man at his residence and issued him the trespass warning.
