A Chicago police officer was served hair and dirt after ordering at a Wendy’s early Monday, police said.
The on-duty officer ordered food at a drive-thru around 1:30 a.m. in the 1600 block of West Division Street, Chicago police said.
As she began to eat, she found the hair and dirt in her food, police said. The officer entered the restaurant and spoke to an employee who dismissed her concerns, police said.
In a statement, a Wendy's spokesperson said the company has been in contact with the police department and plans to investigate.
"The quality and integrity of our food is our number one priority and we take any food-related claims extremely seriously," the statement read. "We have been in touch with representatives from the Chicago Police Department and will fully investigate this matter. We have great respect for law enforcement and their service to our communities."
No charges had been filed as of Tuesday.
