A 16-year-old girl allegedly stabbed another teenage girl to death in Washington, D.C., early Sunday, police said. The stabbing happened during an argument over McDonald’s sauces, CBS affiliate WUSA-TV reported.

Naima Liggon, 16, was brought to a local hospital where she died of her wounds, the Metropolitan Police Department said.

According to police, the teens — both from Waldorf, Maryland — had ordered food at a D.C. McDonald’s and then got in a car together, CBS affiliate WUSA-TV reported. The two then got into an argument over the sauces they had been given, which led to the stabbing, WUSA reported.

    I’d bet that this was not about the sauce. There is either some mental illness or something else at play.

      Yeah, smells like the famous last straw, the drop that overflows the bucket. Maybe they were generally cross, or the action was emblematic of the real issues. We don’t know for sure, but there is likely more than just people stabbing over sauce.

    Imagine throwing your life away and killing another person… over free packets of sauce that they’ll just give to you if you ask.

      I thought it was about which sauce was the best of something.
      Like, it’s clearly the Big Mac sauce and I will die on that hi… 🔪

      Not sure if this or the rick and morty sauce idiots were worse. I suppose the rick and morty ones are just an embarrassment trying to be a meme and this is just basic idiots. Both are stupid as fuck though

    I had some friends from Waldorf and they used to tell me how trashy the place was. This article confirms.

    I half-jokingly suggested in another thread that PFAS and microplastics were making us all stupid, but… maybe they are?
