Prosecutors made a deal Monday with a Detroiter accused of shooting a restaurant employee over the amount of guacamole he got with his food order at an Oakland County restaurant.

The victim was shot in the knee, police said.

At a hearing before Oakland County Circuit Judge David Cohen, Aaron Michael Brown pleaded no contest to assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder and possession of a firearm in the commission of a felony for the April 5 incident at Chipotle Mexican Grill on Evergreen Road in Southfield. In the plea deal, the prosecution dismissed a charge of discharge of a firearm in or at a building causing injury and a second charge of possession of a firearm in the commission of a felony.

According to police, before the shooting Brown had complained to a female employee about the guacamole he received and called her a b**ch.

As reported by The Detroit News, police said other employees escorted her to the kitchen to avoid further conflict, leaving the counter unattended. Brown then went behind the counter, bagged his order and filled a cup with guacamole. One of the employees witnessed it and an altercation ensued.

Brown pulled out a 9mm handgun and fired it, striking the employee in the knee. Brown then left with his order. He was arrested after a traffic stop near the restaurant.

At the time of his arrest, Brown had a permit to carry a concealed weapon, police said.

Sentencing for Brown is scheduled for Feb. 24, 2025. He faces up to 10 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $5,000.
