ALBANY, Ga. (AP) — A south Georgia man who spent a night in jail after calling police on a McDonald's employee says he didn't know he was abusing the emergency communications system.

Lorenzo Riggins told WALB-TV) Wednesday that he went back into the restaurant after realizing he was given the wrong order.

Riggins says he ordered seven McDoubles, a McChicken and an order of fries and saw that one of his eight sandwiches was missing as he walked to his truck.

Riggins says he tried asking an employee to correct the order, which led to an argument. Riggins called police on the McDonald's employee and was taken to the Dougherty County jail for abusing the emergency communication system.

Riggins has bonded out, and says customers should check their orders before leaving a restaurant.
