Nooria Halake in court over alleged McDonald’s tirade that went viral

The alleged star of a Macca’s “counter invasion” viral video has faced court – and says she finds her newfound infamy “embarrassing”.

The woman accused of jumping a McDonald’s counter, abusing staff and throwing food says the viral video of the incident is “embarrassing”.

Nooria Halake made her first appearance in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on Friday, accompanied by a support worker.

Ms Halake, 19, was charged with disorderly behaviour, property damage and aggravated assault over an incident at the fast food outlet in December last year.

Footage posted to social media shows a woman, alleged to be Ms Halake, going behind the McDonald’s counter, throwing food and verbally abusing staff.

She allegedly said “I’ll beat you up and I’ll leave” before taking drinks and food, and calls one staffer a “dumbass b***h”.

On Friday, David Moen, for Ms Halake, asked the court to adjourn his client’s case.

He said he had yet to receive a copy of the allegations and the court file, and still needed to take instructions from his client.

Ms Halake was remanded on continuing bail to face court again in May.

Outside court, Ms Halake was asked if she had seen the footage of the incident.

“Yes I have … embarrassing, it’s embarrassing,” she said.

Video of the incident shows a woman throwing the bottle at staff and taking food and drinks from behind the counter. “What? I’ll beat you up and I’ll leave,” she yells at staff. “Oh what’s that, what’s in that?”

The woman is also seen going into fridges and taking food from the kitchen, taking a doughnut and taking a bite out of it before she is restrained by police.
