Toy-Gun Robber Foiled by Bat-Wielding Store Worker

BAY MINETTE, Ala.  —  Authorities in south Alabama say a gas station employee used a cricket bat to chase away a would-be robber who brandished a toy gun.

The Baldwin County Sheriff's office says the suspect entered Bee Gee's gas station near Bay Minette Saturday afternoon and tried to use the fake weapon to steal money.

Sheriff's Cpl. Mike Gaull tells the Press-Register of Mobile that the employee noticed the gun had an orange tip on the barrel and grabbed the cricket bat. The suspect then ran out of the store without any money.

The 22-year-old suspect was arrested and charged with first-degree robbery.

Moron of the day, but it's still early.   :mental:

Its a hard call. It's Alabama and one tard tries to rob a store with a toy gun and another tard uses a cricket bat to defend himself? WTH The minimum that guy should have had in the store for defense was a 9mm and lots of bullets.

If he had been in any other store, he probably would have faced a .45 ACP and tons of bullets.

I'm sure y'all will be relieved to hear that Bay Minette is only about 20 miles from the AL-FL state line, a little northeast of Spanish Fort, AL
