A teenager stormed a small restaurant in the British city of Swansea with a knife measuring 23 centimeters to get a "bag of French fries", according to the British newspaper "Daily Mail"

Matthew Hawkins, 19, stormed a pizza restaurant, and made a knife known to workers at the scene, shouting for a free "bag chips".

And the worker at the restaurant answered by inquiring about the reason the teenager asked for the bag, to answer the latter by saying: "Because I said so," before he started screaming and hitting the table in front of him with the knife.

The working teenager also threatened to stab, saying: “I will cut you off.” After 15 minutes of shouting and threatening, the teenager decided to go to the next store, indicating that he would return for “french fries”.

Indeed, the teenager went to the next store and stole a bunch of things, and upon his return the worker had gone out of the place to close the door from the outside, locking Hawkins inside the restaurant until the police arrived.

A court in Swansea sentenced the teenager, who was drunk at the time of the attack, to three years in prison at a juvenile facility, and an order was imposed to prevent approaching or communicating with his victims, who terrified him with the knife.
