An unhappy customer at Bruster’s Ice Cream in Fayetteville pointed a gun at a clerk before driving off early Monday evening, police said.

The customer, angry that he was denied a refund on a partially eaten ice cream, had a tattoo on his top left forearm that said “Wheeler CO,” said Lt. Steve Crawshaw of the Fayetteville Police Department.

The suspect was described as a black male with a muscular build driving what was possibly a Chevy van that was dark blue with a ladder and a window on the back, Crawshaw said.

When the customer pulled the semi-automatic handgun and pointed it at the female clerk, she immediately ducked and went to the back to get her manager’s attention, and police were summoned to the scene, Crawshaw said.

The incident took place around 6:30 p.m. at the establishment, located on Ga. Highway 314 one block from Creekwood Trail.

The report failed to detail the ice cream flavor that led to the customer’s armed complaint.
