McDonalds uses bizarre tactic to stop rampaging yobs clashing in restaurants

A McDONALD’S branch is to play Beethoven to calm rampaging yobs.

Fed-up staff are making the switch from pop hits after being pelted with coins during clashes involving more than 20 young trouble-makers.

Classical music will play from 5pm in the 24-hour outlet in Wrexham.

Wi-fi will also be turned off at times during the evening.

Police Inspector Luke Hughes said: “Unless we have some local and unruly Beethoven enthusiasts, it should discourage some issues.”

A Shepherds Bush branch of McDonald's in West London previously began playing classical music, saying it deters yobs.

McDonald's previously said: "We have tested the effects of classical music in the past and played it in some of our restaurants as it encourages more acceptable behaviour.

"Typically, classical music would be played from early evening onwards and, in some cases, on certain nights in a small number of restaurants."
