The McDonald’s employee who police said was shot by a man after serving cold fries to the suspect’s mother has died, the NYPD said Friday morning.

Matthew Webb, 23, succumbed to a gunshot wound to his neck Wednesday after being declared braindead, authorities said. His death is now deemed a homicide, police said.

Police on Monday arrested and charged 20-year-old Michael Morgan with attempted murder and criminal possession of a weapon in connection to the incident. Police had previously said the charges could be upgraded if Webb died from his injuries.

Morgan was also charged with murder for an October 2020 incident where he allegedly shot a 28-year-old man less than a mile away from the Bedford-Stuyvesant McDonald's where the Monday shooting occurred, police said. 

Police also took an 18-year-old woman into custody in connection with the McDonald’s shooting, the NYPD said. She faces criminal possession of a weapon charges, the department said. 

According to police sources, Morgan and the woman knew each other, but their relationship wasn't immediately clear.

Authorities said the 23-year-old McDonald’s worker got into an argument with Morgan’s mother inside the restaurant on Fulton Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant around 7 p.m. on Monday after the woman claimed she had been served cold french fries. 

The argument spilled out into the street, where Morgan allegedly pulled out a gun and shot the employee, according to police.​
