Man fatally stabbed after cutting in line for Popeyes chicken sandwich, police say

A man was fatally stabbed during an argument at a Popeyes restaurant in Maryland on Monday in what police say was a dispute over the franchise’s wildly popular chicken sandwich.

Police in Oxon Hill, Md., say the fight broke out at about 7 p.m. on Monday after the victim allegedly cut in line ahead of the suspect during the dinner rush at Popeyes. The line was specifically designated for customers to buy the Popeyes chicken sandwich, which returned to stores on Sunday after a months-long hiatus.
