The incident occurred on Sunday evening at approximately 9:40 p.m. at a Burger King in Rock Hill. Police were called to the restaurant which was located on Saluda Street, after a witness contacted police saying that the occupants of a car in the drive-through were smoking a marijuana blunt.

When officers arrived at the scene, they identified the suspect vehicle and pulled it over. Inside they found several occupants including 23-year-old Jerrod Raheem Emerson. One of the people in the car admitted to smoking the marijuana, saying that they had all just finished.
