Most fast food joints don’t keep armed security personnel on staff, but this one apparently did – and ten customers have him to thank for potentially saving their lives.
Around 1:00 a.m. in Houston this past week, a man walked into a Whataburger restaurant and opened fire.
“I see a dude in a white bandana pull out a gun like it’s a movie or something, and start shooting behind the counter,” said a witness named Jayvier Green.
Immediately, the security guard took action, firing four shots, all of which hit the suspect in the legs. That’s laudable marksmanship on his part, and police agree.
“He’s pretty shaken up,” said Houston officer Cullen Duncan, “but I explained to him and the other officer explained to him, that he did a great job.”
According to police, there’s security camera footage of the shootout, but it hasn’t been released yet (we’ll be on the lookout for it). Here’s a brief news report covering the incident:
