FLORISSANT, Mo. — A McDonald’s in North County on Parker Road is holding a fundraiser to help cover the medical expenses of Aryiah Lynch, a 15-year-old employee who was assaulted at work. A portion of all sales during lunchtime will be directed to her medical bills.

The incident, which occurred on April 7th, involved 25-year-old Johnny Ricks, who claimed he was defending his sister from Lynch when the altercation took place. Lynch suffered a fractured skull as a result of the assault.

Hundreds of Tesla vehicles parked outside Chesterfield Mall. Why?

In addition to today’s fundraiser, a GoFundMe campaign for Lynch has already collected $43,000. Meanwhile, Ricks faces charges of assault and property damage and is currently held on a $150,000 bond.
