UPDATE: The employee in question has been fired, according to Subway’s official Facebook page:

We appreciate your concern and we want you to know that we in no way condone this kind of behavior. It does not represent the values and ethics of our brand. The unfortunate choice of one individual should not reflect on the more than 400,000 honest, hardworking Sandwich Artists worldwide. We are in touch with the local franchisee and he has informed us that the employee has been terminated.

Original story below: 

A Subway employee cheering the brutal murder of two Mississippi cops has brought her company under fire.

The woman, going by the name “Sierra C-Babi Mccurdy” on Facebook, gleefully announced that the cold-blooded killings could launch another blaze of riots, looting, and property damage in Hattiesburg.

“We can turn this bxtch into Baltimore real quick. Police take away innocent people lives everyday now & get away w/ it, fxck them…[no mercy],” she wrote on Facebook.

“2 police officers was shot in hattiesburg tonight.!” she wrote in another post. “-GOT EM'”

Angry customers also bombarded the company’s Facebook page with complaints. One read:

Employees speak for, and represent, the business they work for. Until there is a complete repudiation of the posts your Mississippi employee made while in uniform, and until she is fired, I will assume that Subway stands by her statements. Until then you know what you can do with a $5 foot-long.

Subway replied that the employee in question had been suspended.

We appreciate your concern and we want you to know that we in no way condone this kind of behavior. It does not represent the values and ethics of our brand. The unfortunate choice of one individual should not reflect on the more than 400,000 honest, hardworking Sandwich Artists worldwide. We are in touch with the local franchisee and he let us know he has suspended his employee pending further investigation.
