Officer Finds One-Inch Bolt In His Arby's Sandwich

Say it ain't so, Arby's. As much as we dig the fast food sandwich chain, this simply isn't okay.

It seems a police officer was dining at an Arby's in Birmingham, Alabama, when he discovered an inch-long bolt inside of his Arby's Classic Roast Beef Sandwich, reports Grubstreet.

Sergeant Patrick Cosby's wife posted a photograph on her Facebook showing the piece of hardware lodged inside the sandwich. Cosby was on patrol when he visited the drive-thru of the restaurant. The clerk handed him the sandwich, where he discovered the bolt shortly after biting into it.

Staff say that they reviewed the security footage and it didn't seem like Cosby was targeted specifically. Realistically, the location says it could be from a meat cutter they've had trouble with. This could mean that the bolt came right off the machine and landed into a handful of beef slices before being unwittingly assembled into a sandwich. Though that's a mouthful of "what ifs" to take in.

As of this time, Cosby has filed a police report and contacted the FDA to further investigate the matter.
