McDonalds uses bizarre tactic to stop rampaging yobs clashing in restaurants
A McDONALD’S branch is to play Beethoven to calm rampaging yobs.
Fed-up staff are making the switch from pop hits after being pelted with coins during clashes involving more than 20 young trouble-makers.
McDonald’s said: ‘We have tested the effects of classical music in the past and played it in some of our restaurants as it encourages more acceptable behaviour’[/caption]
Classical music will play from 5pm in the 24-hour outlet in Wrexham.
Wi-fi will also be turned off at times during the evening.
Police Inspector Luke Hughes said: “Unless we have some local and unruly Beethoven enthusiasts, it should discourage some issues.”
A Shepherds Bush branch of McDonald’s in West London previously began playing classical music, saying it deters yobs.
McDonald’s previously said: “We have tested the effects of classical music in the past and played it in some of our restaurants as it encourages more acceptable behaviour.
“Typically, classical music would be played from early evening onwards and, in some cases, on certain nights in a small number of restaurants.”

Shocking moment yobs brawl at McDonald’s before one pulls out a huge KNIFE in chaotic scenes

The brawlers – who all appear to be young men – can be seen wrestling with each other before one pulls out a crutch and uses it as a weapon.
The fight then escalates into an all-in brawl, with staff having to get involved.
Shouts can be heard as punches are thrown.
“What are you doing bro,” a man involved in the incident said.
“Leave bro.”
One of the yobs involved in the fight then pulled out a massive knife.
The brawl then spills out to the ordering counter area and eventually the group of thugs leave the premises.
McDonald’s and the Met Police have been contacted for comment.
The horrifying clip shocked viewers on social media who shared their disapproval of the situation.
“Does everyone in the UK carry a knife around,” a Twitter user said.
“This is embarrassing,” one said.
“I cannot believe these things happen in McDonald’s,” another said.
The chaotic incident follows the closure of the world’s “worst” McDonald’s that encountered more than 900 fights at its premises.
In September last year, a customer was knocked to the ground with one punch as two men exchanged harsh words.
