A 37-year-old man has been arrested after he allegedly raped a four-year-old girl in a McDonald’s toilet while she was on a daycare field trip.

The girl left her caretakers to use a toilet in the McDonald’s play area in Oklahoma, according to an arrest affidavit.

One of the caretakers went to check on the girl who found the toilet door was locked and started banging on it.

The man, identified as Joshua David Kabatra, eventually opened the door with his arms raised and said “I was just washing my hands”, the caretaker told police.

The child told workers that Kabatra sexually assaulted her.

The 37-year-old told cops he had felt sick and vomited in the bathroom sink while the girl was on the toilet.

Kabatra remains in an Oklahoma City prison and court records don’t list an attorney who can speak on his behalf.

A spokesman for McDonald’s said they were “disturbed by the incident”.

They said: “At McDonald’s, nothing is more important to us than the safety and well-being of our customers.

“We are deeply disturbed by the incident that occurred at one of our Oklahoma restaurants earlier this week. We are fully cooperating with the police during their investigation.

“At this time, our thoughts are with the victim and others impacted by this incident.”
