Employees offered Tyler a complimentary replacement meal, police said. It wasn't enough, though, as security cameras captured Tyler's reaction.

The employees were not injured.

Livonia police arrested Tyler Monday on a four-count misdemeanor warrant. Her bond was set at $2,000 or 10 percent. She is due back in court March 26.
