An employee at a restaurant in Georgia shot and killed an armed intruder in self-defense after being pistol-whipped during the attempted robbery.

Police in Warner Robins, Georgia say an armed and masked intruder entered an American Philly N Wings restaurant last week and demanded money from an employee before jumping over the counter and pistol whipping the worker, according to a report according to a report from WMAZ.

The employee was knocked to the ground and began fighting over the gun with the intruder, who police identified as 23-year-old Joshua Hickey, eventually pulling out his own legally owned pistol and fired at his attacker three times, striking him twice.

"Basically a male entered, later found to be Joshua Hickey, entered with a mask and a hood on. He did have a semi-automatic pistol," Sergeant Justin Clark told WMAZ. "The restaurant worker was struck, hit the ground. As he was coming back up, he drew his own legally-owned firearm and fired three shots at Mr. Hickey. Mr. Hickey was struck twice and fled on foot."

Officers were able to locate Hickey and transport him to the hospital, but he died of his wounds.

Reading the headline alone, I would have guessed the Waffle House.

That’s somebody’s son whose mother shouldn’t have worry about him being killed every time he goes out to rob someone. (Sarcasm)

I expect the restaurant worker to be arrested soon. Democrat/leftist expectations are to surrender your money and property to a disadvantaged minority armed robber, not to have the audacity to act like a vigilante and fight back.

Thanks. Am I the only one who sees a strong resemblance to Karine Jean-pierre?

Thoughtful of the perp to run away and bleed out offsite. Less mess to mop up...

Thank God he had a legally owned firearm...Otherwise he would have had to bite the bullet and allowed this violent criminal to shoot him to death.

A good “died suddenly” story!

Hope the victim lives happily ever after.

Good. The left wants perps to waltz right in and take what they want from their “oppressors”. And they are ok if the perp kills you.
