DETROIT – Detroit police say a 20-year-old Burger King employee who was arguing with a customer punched the 67-year-old man, who fell and later died.

Police spokesman Yvette Walker says the older man was reportedly causing a disturbance Thursday afternoon at the restaurant on the city's east side, tried to hit the employee and the employee swung back. WJBK-TV reports police say the punch may have caused the elderly man to choke on his dentures.

The man died at a hospital. Walker says an autopsy will determine cause of death. Police say the employee was being held Friday and information would be submitted to prosecutors for review.

Burger King spokeswoman Denise Wilson said Friday that company officials were aware of the incident and the franchise owner was cooperating with police.

I've heard good things about Whataburger, shame I can't try one here in CA. I did try a Five Guys while in Virginia, delicious and huge but expensive.

NJ has a couple places called Blitz Burger. I've only had it once but it was solid. Had a burger there which was stacked thus: bun>patty>pork roll>fried egg>pork roll>patty>bun, side of steak fries and a pickle for about $8. Not bad.

Burgers in Manhattan tend to be astronomically overpriced and completely underwhelming.

A few places here in the Twin Cities have loaded burgers, or what they call Juicy Loosies. Basically anything that would be on the burger is instead cooked into the burger. Just like Eddie Murphy's mom made'em.

Oh, aren't those the ones where the cheese is in the center of the burger? I think that was the one I saw on travel channel. Looked extremely delicious.
