Police say the former employee processed about 800 fake refund transactions to his own credit cards before investigators made an arrest.

  • Former Chick-fil-A employee Keyshun Jones was taken into custody on April 17, 2026, accused of stealing over $80,000 through a fraudulent refund scheme at a Grapevine, Texas, location.
  • In November 2025, Jones allegedly used the restaurant register to create roughly 800 fraudulent orders for macaroni and cheese trays, then issued refunds to his personal credit cards.
  • Surveillance footage reviewed by Grapevine Police Department investigators identified Jones after the restaurant owner reported the theft, appearing to show him unattended behind the counter.
  • Jones now faces felony charges of property theft, money laundering, and evading arrest, according to police.
  • Following a five-month investigation, Jones allegedly evaded officers multiple times before the Texas Attorney General's Fugitive Task Force and Fort Worth Police Department assisted in his apprehension.
