An Atlanta crook picked the wrong Waffle House to target early Monday morning. That’s because when the bandana and hoodie-wearing bandit walked into the restaurant and pointed a gun at patrons, one of them reached for his gun and fired back.
Police say the suspect entered the Waffle House in south Fulton County just before 2 am, brandishing a pistol and demanding money.
“Nobody move and open the cash register,” the suspect, 20-year-old Ashton Macafee, allegedly said according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution (AJC).
What he didn’t know was that seated together at a booth were off-duty Atlanta police officer Jonathan Sutton and his friend, off-duty security guard Evans Chad Pollard.

Being as they're such popular wedding venues, you wouldn't want to piss off the waitresses...

I understand what you mean, however, he is a cop and was five feet away from the robber. He could also have shot one more time after the two shots.

He stopped the threat.
Anything after that is murder in a court of law.

He’s not a cop. He’s a security guard.
The cop didn’t draw his weapon until after the shooting.

lol I’ve never run a ping list during my 8 years here! How about making a joint effort of it, and run it together to see how it works out.
