Crime Armed Robbers Enter Restaurant, Force Owner and Wife on Ground, then Guy Still Eating Stands Up...

[The Helper]

A pair of armed robbery suspects reportedly entered a Houston restaurant as the owner was preparing to close for the night on Saturday. The men went after Koy Sam, the owner of the restaurant, and his wife, forcing them to the ground.

“All of a sudden my wife ran back panicking,” Sam told KHOU-TV of the moment the men entered the restaurant with guns drawn.

As one of the robbery suspects went for the register, a customer still finishing up his meal in the restaurant turned the tables in the huge way. He got up out of his seat, pulled his own firearm and bravely confronted the suspects, KHOU-TV reports.

The armed good Samaritan reportedly opened fire at one of the suspects when he attempted to run, striking glass windows. He was able to hold the other man at gunpoint until police arrived.

Guys, not joke, I am dead serious, this is what we had in the newspapers today:
1) Police on rescue operation to safe a fucking teddy bear.
2) Girl harrassed by stranger: He yelled at her that she should walk correctly on the sidewalk

This country man. It is so boring here sometimes I feel like our newspapers are trying to parody detroit in the most hillarious ways possible.

Newspapers here are the same. Totally different news source, totally different news types. This bit of news is well over a thousand miles away from me. Somewhere, within a 1000 miles of your boring little town, someone is getting killed.

Also this scares the shit out of me. What happened to the bullet? It obviously didn't hit the guy he shot at (like usual), but it hit something after that window. What if it was a baby's head? Not saying people shouldn't have guns, but I can see the danger in it. Those robbers probably would have left with just the money and not actually killed anyone (maybe not, but probably), whereas the 'savior' of the story put many others at potentially lethal risk by not being able to aim.
