AUSTIN, Texas — An employee has been fired after leaving an offensive message on a cop’s receipt.
According to KVUE, the officer posted a photo of his Southside Flying Pizza receipt Saturday to Facebook showing the comment “pig a** m*therf***er” at the bottom.
When the restaurant’s representatives found out about the incident through an email, they fired the employee and said they are “tremendously sorry and deeply concerned.”
As a follow-up, the restaurant donated $1,000 to the Police Officers Memorial Foundation.
“While it is unfortunate one of our Austin Police Officers encountered this situation, like in all cases it is a reflection of one employee’s actions, not that of the owner/s or other employees of the restaurant,” Anna Sabana, Austin police marketing manager, told the news station. “When the incident was brought to the restaurant’s attention it was immediately addressed and a donation was made to a nonprofit that supports law enforcement. “
