Former Chick-fil-A Employee Charged in $80,000 Mac-and-Cheese Fraud Scheme Texas authorities have charged a former Chick-fil-A employee with orchestrating a fraudulent scheme that allegedly defrauded the fast-food chain of $80,000 by exploiting its point-of-sale system. The accused, identified as 23-year-old Keyshun Jones, is accused of returning to a Chick-fil-A location after being fired a month prior and using the restaurant’s register to process unauthorized refunds for hundreds of large trays of mac-and-cheese. The scheme reportedly involved refunding the full cost of the orders—each priced at around $100—to his personal credit cards, totaling an estimated $80,000 in illicit gains. According to the Grapevine Police Department, Jones was arrested on April 17 after a joint operation by the Texas attorney general’s Fugitive Task Force and the Fort Worth Police Department. The department stated that officers had attempted to apprehend him multiple times before the successful arrest. Jones is currently in custody at the Green Bay prison in Fort Worth, Texas. His lawyer, however, declined to comment when approached by the New York Times. Surveillance footage obtained by the Chick-fil-A store appears to show Jones returning to the location in a brown puffer vest, blue jeans, and a backwards white cap—distinct from the chain’s standard red polo uniform. The footage captures him accessing the register behind the service counter, where he allegedly processed the refunds. Police allege that he used the restaurant’s point-of-sale system to issue refunds to his personal accounts, though the exact method of bypassing security measures remains unclear.#chickfila #keyshun_jones #grapevine_police_department #fort_worth_police_department #texas_attorney_generals_fugitive_task_force

New Gaithersburg Retail Development Underway Near Chick-fil-A and Sheetz Construction has officially begun on a new strip retail development in Gaithersburg, Maryland, as Matan Companies announced the groundbreaking of a 10,175-square-foot retail space at 715 Progress Way. The site, located on a one-acre parcel at the intersection of Montgomery Village Avenue and MD-355, is strategically positioned to capitalize on existing foot traffic from prominent national retailers such as Chick-fil-A and Sheetz. The project marks a significant expansion for Matan Companies, which has been actively developing commercial properties in the region. The new retail strip is designed to serve both the local community and a substantial on-site workforce, with the development situated directly behind two 198,000-square-foot Class A office and industrial buildings also developed by Matan Companies. These buildings, which are fully leased, house tenants including AstraZeneca, Montgomery County Public Schools, and Daikin Comfort Technologies Distribution. The proximity of these high-occupancy facilities to the retail space underscores the area’s appeal as a centralized business hub, offering convenience for employees and visitors alike. According to leasing documents, two of the parcels within the new retail strip have already been leased, though the identities of the tenants remain undisclosed. In addition to the current project, Matan Companies is promoting three remaining pad sites spanning a total of four acres. These parcels present opportunities for further retail or commercial development within the same area, reflecting the developer’s confidence in the site’s potential.#matan_companies #gaithersburg #chickfila #sheetz #montgomery_county_public_schools
