“The pregnant customer and her husband had stopped by the local Atlanta McDonald’s to use the restroom and grab a quick bite to eat. While in the restroom she realized that her water had broken and she was in active labor. As she began to give birth, she screamed, which alerted the McDonald’s crew members and her husband of her condition. Three employees rushed to her aid and ultimately delivered a healthy baby girl.”
