A former Chick-fil-A employee is accused of stealing more than $80,000 through a fraudulent refund scheme involving hundreds of fake orders of macaroni and cheese, according to police.
Keyshun Jones was arrested on April 17 following a five-month investigation that began in November 2025 after the restaurant’s owner reported a theft, the Grapevine Police Department said.
Detectives reviewing surveillance footage identified Jones, who had been terminated about a month earlier, as the suspect. Police said the video shows him behind the counter without authorization, using the register to ring up roughly 800 orders of macaroni-and-cheese trays, then issuing refunds to his personal credit cards.
Authorities said the transactions totaled just over $80,000.
Police said Jones evaded arrest multiple times before being taken into custody with assistance from the Texas Attorney General’s Fugitive Task Force and the Fort Worth Police Department.
Jones now faces felony charges of property theft, money laundering, and evading arrest, according to police.
