Customer smashes DoorDash driver’s car with tire iron, causing $10K in damages over failed delivery: ‘Over a 10-piece chicken wing’
A Milwaukee woman is facing felony charges after allegedly tracking down a DoorDash driver and vandalizing her car with a tire iron — all over a missing chicken wing order, according to reports.
Janiyah Jones, 22, is accused of using DoorDash’s GPS tracking feature to follow delivery driver Faith Morris to her home after a failed order from Fryers restaurant, Milwaukee police said, per TMJ4.
“She did this over a 10-piece chicken wing! She passed Fryers to come here,” Morris told the outlet. According to Morris, her phone lost service during the delivery, preventing her from completing the order in the DoorDash app. She returned home to reconnect to WiFi and cancel the delivery.
However, police say Jones was not satisfied with that explanation. After allegedly tracing Morris to her residence, Jones began sending threatening messages, including one that read, “So which one [is] yours?”—a reference to Morris’s address.
“There’s no way that she should have been able to call me for an hour after this happened. An hour? It’s absolutely insane,” Morris said.
Moments later, Ring doorbell footage captured Jones at Morris’s home, allegedly smashing the windows of her car with a tire iron and throwing a brick, causing an estimated $10,000 in damage.
“It was so crazy how the glass was just raining from the sky when she was hitting it,” Morris recalled.
Investigators later obtained a search warrant for DoorDash’s records, which confirmed Jones had placed the order. Police also matched her appearance in the Ring footage to bodycam video from a previous incident earlier in the year.
Morris said she has been unable to work since the attack. “This is a crazy situation that’s going crazy on the internet because a lot of people have never heard something like this,” she said.
DoorDash condemned the attack, calling Jones’s actions “uncalled for, unacceptable, and disturbing.”
Jones has been charged with felony criminal damage to property and disorderly conduct. If convicted, she faces up to three and a half years in prison.
