Cobb County Sheriff called deputies for help after Burger King got his order wrong

Body camera video showing deputies helping the Cobb County sheriff with a faulty fast food order started grabbing the attention of voters on Friday.

“The video definitely tuned me in,” said Sophia Farook.

Channel 2 Action News obtained three body camera videos from the Cobb County Sheriff’s Office.

Each one shows a deputy responding to the Burger King on Veterans Memorial Highway in Mableton on March 4, 2023.

In the videos, the deputies approach Cobb County Sheriff Craig Owens, Sr. in his truck parked in the parking lot.

He tells one of them, “Hey, do me a favor. I need to get, all I need is the owner name of whoever owns this damn facility or the manager.”

“I wanted her [passenger] a Whopper, no mayo, cut in half, right?” Owens said.

The deputies listen as he said, “I don’t need no damn money back no more. I just need to find out who owns this place so I can do an official complaint.”

They do not ask why the sheriff was unable to get the information himself.

They approach the restaurant doors.
