Two thugs were caught on video viciously beating an elderly man outside of ‘America’s scariest McDonald’s.’
The Seattle restaurant is so dangerous it is nicknamed ‘McStabby’s’, and bans customers from going inside due to constant mayhem.
In the latest chaotic scene, two men were seen standing on the street outside the eatery around 10pm on April 19 when a frail 77-year-old man walked towards them.
The two men then approached the victim before one struck him in the head.
The other man then shoved the elderly man to the ground from behind.
Once the man was on the ground, the initial attacker continued to beat the victim before calmly walking away.
The victim was hospitalized for more than a week after he sustained a broken knee, a broken arm, and a deep cut above his right eye that required stitches, Fox 13 reported.
Video also showed police arresting 29-year-old Ahmed Abdullahi Osman while he was on the phone outside the McDonald’s.

Osman was charged with second-degree assault. He was then released from custoryd before a bail hearing as police continued investigating, and was later issued with an arrest warrant, KOMO News reported.
Osman is now on the run and has not yet been apprehended.
He has a criminal history of misdemeanor convictions for harassment in 2023, first-degree attempted criminal trespass, and fourth-degree assault both in 2022, and second-degree criminal trespass in 2021, according to Fox 13.
He currently has pending cases for charges this year for fourth-degree assault and first-degree criminal trespass, along with third-degree theft and fire alarm/equipment tampering.
‘The defendant’s decision to assault and recklessly inflict substantial bodily harm on a random elderly man who was just walking down the sidewalk minding his own business demonstrates the defendant is a substantial danger to the community and is likely to commit a violent offense,’ Senior Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Ryan Turner wrote in charging documents cited by Fox.
Officials are reportedly trying to locate the other man involved in the attack.
While police were detaining Osman he could be heard telling an officer: ‘Between me and you my sister she’s the senator of Minnesota.’
He also claimed to have worked for the state and said he knew Seattle mayor Katie Wilson.
The McDonald’s near where the attack happened is a terrifying hub of vagrants and drug addicts who congregate outside it.
‘They do drugs and attack each other,’ local Nick, 45, told the Daily Mail in January.
‘When it’s dark, it’s way worse – way more people getting assaulted and robbed,’ he continued, noting that he makes sure to leave before the sun goes down.
Patrons must order from a hatch cut into the space that once occupied the double doors into the dining room.

The McDonald’s in downtown Seattle is so dangerous it has permanently closed its dining room and now only serves customers through a makeshift hatch reinforced with plexiglass
Most of the hatch is covered with Plexiglass and has just a small opening along its bottom quarter so customers can pay and receive their food.
The double doors that once welcomed locals to the Pacific Northwest city inside for Big Macs, McNuggets and milkshakes are now propped open at all times, their glass covered with ugly plywood sheets to protect them from vandalism.
Addicts can be seen lining the trash-littered street and clustering together in front of businesses along ‘The Blade’ – the unsavory stretch of 3rd Avenue between Pine and Pike Streets.
Many were rendered incapacitated by fentanyl, slumped over and barely conscious just blocks away from the iconic Pike Place Market.
The market is famed as an upscale foodie paradise and is the location for the first-ever Starbucks coffee shop.
But the streets surrounding it are a shadow of their clean and bustling selves from Seattle’s 1990s heyday.
Fidgeting with his walking cane, he solemnly recalled the agony and bloodshed he witnessed firsthand.
‘I watched a girl get shot and killed right here,’ he said, gesturing toward a lamppost outside the McDonald’s. ‘It was a horrible shooting.’
He was referring to a January 2020 shooting that killed one woman and injured seven other people, including a nine-year-old boy.
It wasn’t long after that incident that the restaurant’s dining room closed for good.
