Hoggin’ the drive-thru

Toni Hopper

Carl’s Jr. day shift manager Lisa Keck arrived at work early Wednesday, just before 5 a.m., only to discover an unscheduled delivery of fresh meat sitting at the drive-thru speaker.

Keck couldn’t believe what she was seeing at first.

“They were stacked very neatly,” she said. They turned out to be seven dead wild boars. Keck used caution and stayed in her vehicle and continued circling the building. At first she thought it was a large box until she got a second look. She called Rhonda Morris, the store manager, and when she arrived, they called Duncan Police Department.

“I was shocked. I thought what are we going to do with dead pigs,” Keck said. “But the police did a real good job. They called animal control and they came out and picked them up, then the Duncan Fire Department came out and hosed down the lot.”

Det. Jay Evans said the report was made just before 5 a.m. He said it was an odd thing.

Keck is sure more than one person helped put the pigs there since they were stacked so neatly and she said it didn’t appear that they had been dead for very long.

“I’m sure it was a prank,” she said. As far as she knows, there isn’t anyone mad at the restaurant or its workers. She said everyone had a good laugh, because “what else are you going to do?”
