The Kansas Department of Agriculture cited McDonald’s at 15095 W. 151st St., Olathe, for a roach infestation. It had two priority violations during a June 20 inspection when 40 to 50 live roaches were found in the area behind the three-compartment sink, hot water heater, microwaves, bread racks and in a dry storage along the wall shared with the water heater.

It was reinspected the same day and reopened.

McDonald’s issued this statement: “There was an isolated case in the back of our restaurant. Once we were notified of the situation, we immediately had professional treatment performed. The restaurant passed inspection, no infestation was found and the restaurant was re-opened about three hours later. The restaurant has passed all inspections since then.”
