Oregon authorities are seeking a would-be thief who was armed with a hatchet when he tried to rob a convenience store, only to flee when the clerk drew a gun and called 911.
However, the clerk's quick thinking cost him his job, with the president of Plaid Pantry in Oak Grove explaining to local station KOIN-TV that the chain has a zero-tolerance policy for weapons.
He said employees are trained to de-escalate robbery situations to avoid injury, according to the station.
The Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office on Friday released surveillance video of the incident which took place April 28 at the store, seeking tips in identifying the suspect who fled empty-handed and without the 12-inch hatchet.

I know. I saw the bumper stickers in '74.
A next door neighbor at our lake cottage was having problems with some youts who had a beef with his son driving by and throwing beer bottles at his house. The third time they came by they stopped to launch and he made that ugly 12ga rack noise and they spun their wheels in the dirt street and did not come back again.
Fabulous. Funny
