Guy in yellow shirt deserves a medal.

Did he try and hold all those people hostage?

Looks like Swat, messed him up.

Did he try and steal a donut display case?

"Moments later, Joel McClain Carson, entered the convenience store with a gun.

Within a minute, police said he shot and killed 24-year-old Efran Hernandez, before turning his rage onto the other people in the store.

"He said, 'This is not a game. It's not a joke. I don't want any money, any beer... I came prepared to die,'" one of the hostages later told the police.

Carson then ordered an employee to lock the front door before he barricades it with a donut case.

Customers were then ordered to the back of the store."

Hahaha... they gave that robber what for. He was a big guy too. I am really glad they all got out OK. That was a heck of a risk the guy who first grabbed the gun. Thank goodness the others came to his assistance as the big guy might have taken the gun back. This is one of those times when doing nothing looks like it could cost you your life. That guy likely would have started shooting the rest of them.
