A four-time convicted felon has been jailed as a safety risk after prosecutors said he opened fire on a South Side fast food restaurant drive-thru window because his order was not ready.

Aaron Collins, 34, “was so incensed by a trivial matter—not having his fast food order ready—that he got out of [his] car and fired into Wendy’s 3 times, striking a cashier,” Judge Ankur Srivastava wrote in a detention order. The judge said the alleged crime is “so violent and horrific” that electronic monitoring, which could allow Collins to move freely two days a week, could not protect the public. Srivastava also noted Collins’ status as a four-time felon.
