Woman accused of pulling out gun at man in front of Jefferson City McDonald’s

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A woman has been charged after she allegedly pulled a gun out on someone on April 10 outside the McDonald’s on Missouri Boulevard in Jefferson City.

Tameka Whitfield, of Jefferson City, was charged on Wednesday with unlawful use of a weapon, armed criminal action and second-degree assault. She was not in custody on Thursday afternoon and court documents claim she was last seen on Flock cameras in the St. Louis area.

The probable cause statement says the victim go into an argument with a co-worker about orders taking too long to be fulfilled. The victim allegedly then went into his vehicle, got food from the drive-thru and parked in front of the building, the statement says.

Whitfield then allegedly walked up to the vehicle, pulled out a gun and said, “Don’t talk to my son like that,” court documents say.

The victim went down the road to meet with police, the statement indicates. He eventually identified Whitfield from a photo lineup, the statement says.

Police wrote that Whitfield was also seen on video “going into her vehicle and running toward the Victim's vehicle and pointing an object at the Victim.”
