Chick-fil-A provides Fla. first responders with free breakfast

The Coral Springs Human Resources manager went to pay, but the Chick-fil-A manager refused to take her money

CORAL SPRINGS, Fla. — Chick-fil-A went above and beyond for a group of hungry dispatchers working long hours after an influx of Irma-related 911 calls.

On Wednesday, the Coral Springs Human Resources manager went to purchase some Chick-fil-A for her dispatch center.

The fast food restaurant put in the order of two boxes of coffee, two dozen fruit cups and two dozen breakfast sandwiches, but when she pulled out her card to pay the Chick-fil-A manager walked away, the department wrote on Facebook.

The Human Resources manager attempted to pay again, but the Chick-fil-A manager refused to take her money and said “we are here for our first responders.”

Chick-fil-A has long supported law enforcement. In August when Sgt. Sam Howard and Officer Matthew Baxter were killed in the line of duty, they were honored with a table. The restaurant also honored Deputy Norman Lewis in January with a table.
