A physical altercation between employees at a Wauwatosa McDonald’s on Feb. 11, 2026 left one person reportedly bitten and prompted police to cite multiple people, according to a dispatch and police report posted to local incident-tracking outlets. Police action around the incident included citations for several individuals and an ongoing effort to identify a fourth suspect.

“Citations included disorderly conduct, providing false information and battery,” the report said. Police named three people who were cited: Daquan Blue, 19, was cited for disorderly conduct; Darius Walker, 26, was cited for resisting or obstructing and providing false information; and a 17-year-old was cited for disorderly conduct, battery and criminal damage to property.

Police said the confrontation grew out of an ongoing dispute among some employees. “Three employees and two of the men involved in the battery had an ongoing dispute, which may have led to the incident, police said. Some McDonald's employees were angry with the victim, and the situation escal.” The report quoted Knop: “His (the victim's) fellow employees came to settle the score and brought a couple friends along,” Knop said.

The dispatch entry documenting the event is truncated in the available record, and the report does not provide an exact time or the McDonald’s street address. The victim or victims were not named in the supplied excerpts, and details about the nature or extent of injuries beyond that one person was “reportedly bitten” were not included in the material released with the dispatch.

Police said accomplices cited at the scene “refused to tell police the name of the fourth suspect, whom police are trying to identify,” Knop said. Authorities asked anyone with information to call the police department at 262-532-8700.

The Wauwatosa excerpt attributes multiple remarks to “Knop” but does not provide a first name or title in the available text. The dispatch and cited materials do not indicate whether the restaurant remained open after the incident or whether McDonald’s management or corporate officials took disciplinary action; those details are not contained in the released report.
