Shopkeep intervenes to stop brutal mugging
Syed Ahmed was no stranger to being robbed at his Ashley Phosphate convenience store.

So when Ahmed saw a regular be assaulted and mugged for the $490 from a check he cashed, Ahmed quickly followed with a gun in hand to stop.
It's somewhat depressing to read about how frequently this happens, but it's redeeming to see someone step in to stop it.
