Five guys have been arrested at Five Guys when police were called to the Five Guys restaurant after said five guys were fighting at Five Guys. Are there any guys left at Five Guys? I hope so, because those burgers are damn fine.

According to Fox News, witnesses described the incident as an ‘all-out brawl’, after cups were thrown and doors slammed in faces.
Though the original cause of the fight is still unknown, one witness told police the fight started when one guys started ‘talking smack’ about a second guy, who responded by throwing a drink and slamming a door in the face of the first guy, the Miami Herald reports.
The five guys who were arrested, two 18-year-olds and three juveniles, were reportedly charged with affray – a misdemeanor charge which involves two or more people fighting in a public place and disturbing the peace. All five guys were reportedly taken to the police station. The juveniles were later released to their parents.
PANaturally, the incident attracted a number of good comments from concerned citizens.

Outstanding! I hope there were Five Officers there to complete the trifecta!
Another said:
It was over burgers and fries…I’m here all day.
While another added:
I’m assuming their milkshakes didn’t bring all the boys to the yard?!
While it’s a funny story, it’s no laughing matter. Things can get heated when it comes to those delicious patties of fresh ground beef, limitless supplies of fries cooked in peanut oil, and a countless selection of drinks… Is it lunchtime yet?
