Huntsville, Alabama, police indicate that an IHOP employee pulled his own gun and killed a man who was shooting at store employees.
The Associated Press reports that the incident began when a customer became agitated over his food order. That customer opened fire on IHOP employees, killing one and wounding another. The wounded employee then pulled his own gun and shot the attacker dead.
Police said of the wounded employee, “[He] pulled a handgun and shot the customer-shooter in self-defense of others.”
Colombia car bomb attack reflects 'internal tensions within ELN rebel group'
WAAY 31 identified the deceased IHOP employee as Roy Brown and reported that Brown’s son, Jay, is the individual who pulled his own gun and killed the attacker.
John Powell, a frequent customer to the IHOP where the incident occurred, praised the man for his actions. Powell said, “It’s amazing that he was able to think so quickly on his feet in that situation, because I think I probably just would’ve panicked.”
He added, “I’m glad he was carrying. I think it’s fantastic. I love knowing that the good guys have guns so that, if the bad guys act up, the good guys can protect themselves.”

????(...did they swing by IHOP?
Probably fired by now.
He’ll be lucky if IHOP doesn’t fire him for carrying a weapon on the job.
“WAAY 31 identified the deceased IHOP employee as Roy Brown and reported that Brown’s son, Jay, is the individual who pulled his own gun and killed the attacker.”
Might as well give out his address too.
Oh yeah, he should be fired. This is the same IHOP which pulled their ads on Tucker Carlson’s show because he kept coining the phrase “illegal aliens”.
This is a good thing. Right?
Currently residing at the county morgue.
The press is so sick in their reporting.
They give you nothing on the killer (not even a name or picture), but ID the folks who had to fend off the evil freak. Now he probably has to move to protect his family from the family of the terrorist or Leftwing mobs who will eventually gather around his home.
“WAAY 31 reviewed court documents show the shooter, Roderick Turner, 25, was accused of shooting at other people when he was 18 years old. It happened twice.” https://www.waaytv.com/content/news/IHOP-shooter-was-accused-of-violent-crimes-before-504526302.html

All part of their anti-2A agenda. Sometimes they fall victim to the monsters they protect. SMH
No even vague description of the perp. Odd. Waiting for notification of next of kin, I suppose...
Roderick is one clue as to the perps demographic.
You don’t think the victim and perpetrator should be named?
Do we REALLY need to have the press report to us about the perp OR do we ALREADY KNOW who the perp was!!!
Not if it identifies the defender. The perp is ok if the the crime doesn’t go ‘exactly as planned’ as in this case. If the perp isn’t killed, I have mixed feelings, as I do have some issue with our system of publishing names of the accused, long before they’re ever brought to trial.
How do you shoot at people TWICE & you’re still walking free!!??
“Roderick is one clue as to the perps demographic.”
He must be an Irish Redhead.
Surely CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, WAPO, LAT, NPR, and all the other fake news outlets will report this.
