Connecticut man refused service at McDonald’s for not wearing mask throws rock into restaurant window, state police say

A Danielson man was arrested last week after he threw a large rock into the front window of a Connecticut McDonald’s last week after he was refused service for not wearing a face mask inside the restaurant.

Jason D. Daddario, 37, was charged with criminal mischief and breach of peace and taken into custody after briefly trying to flee state troopers, police said.

The incident began just after 8 p.m. May 1 when Daddario walked into the McDonald’s in Brooklyn and was asked to leave because he did not have a face mask on, which Gov. Ned Lamont has required inside stores and businesses to try to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus across the state.
