SPARTANBURG, S.C.-- A customer at the Waffle House on Chesnee Highway shot and killed a gunman attempting to rob the business early Saturday morning, according to a report from the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office.

Deputies responded to a report of an armed robbery attempt at the Waffle House restaurant at 2230 Chesnee Highway at 1:13 Saturday morning. They discovered that two men had attempted to rob the business.

Deputies said a customer at the restaurant who was a concealed weapons permit holder attempted to thwart the robbery and hold the suspects at gunpoint with his handgun until authorities arrived. However, one man pointed his gun at the customer, who then shot and killed the suspect, deputies said. The other suspect fled the scene.

Demographically speaking, Waffle House is probably the riskiest place to rob.
You know what I mean, Vern?

Riskier than a Starbucks, for sure.

The dead criminal was “scattered, smothered and covered...”

I think that Waffle House has a higher percentage of customers paying cash rather than credit card.

[nuconvert]

Maybe, but if the Waffle House closest to me is any indication, they couldn’t have more than $30 in their register.

Dante's inferno?

Perhaps

{snip} William's father said his son has never done anything like this in the past. Saturday would have been his 19th birthday.

The deceased. Just wondering if daddy is telling the truth. What sort of picture is that? Driver's license? Yearbook? Prior booking?
