Bonehead Shake Shack employee held coworkers at gunpoint and returned to work two days later: prosecutors

A fast-food fool pulled off a brazen robbery at gunpoint, taking his Shake Shake coworkers hostage and returning to work only days later, cops said.Keondre Simmons, 33, covered his face and barged into the Shake Shack location where he worked in Scottsdale, Arizona armed with a semi-automatic handgun on August 3, according to FOX 10 Phoenix.Simmons then allegedly led one worker to a walk-in cooler at gunpoint and forced the store manager to open the store’s safe and hand over about $2800, the outlet said.Simmons is accused of locking both employees inside the cooler, forcing them both to kneel at gunpoint.He’s also accused of forcing them to turn over their cellphones, which he allegedly destroyed in a sink full of water.Both victims told police that the suspect’s physical appearance, voice and familiarity with the restaurant were consistent with Simmons — including his knowledge of the walk-in cooler latch, where gloves and cleaning wipes were kept and the layout of employee-only areas.
