They said she was cleaning the women’s bathroom at the Golden Arches at 91400 Overseas Highway in Tavernier when William Barney Weems, 57, of Columbia, South Carolina, “crawled from under a stall” and “grabbed her breasts.”

She wasn’t hurt, authorities said.

Deputies responded and said Weems “admitted he intentionally grabbed the woman,” leading to his arrest on a battery charge.

Monroe County Sheriff’s Office jail records show he was being held in the agency’s Key West jail facility on a $50,000 bond.
