Story from Foxnews.com
A fake gun proved no match for a sledgehammer in an Ohio attempted robbery, reports WEWS-TV of Cleveland.Customers were eating in Stoney's Pizza (search) in Columbus Saturday night when a man came in wearing a ski mask and waving a gun around.
The shop's staffers locked themselves in a walk-in refrigerator. Customers lay on the floor while the gunman searched an office for money and tried to open a cash register, both in vain.
Finally the robber gave up and started walking out. He hadn't noticed that a customer had slipped out the back door and was waiting outside for him.
"He already had tape on his license plate," J.R. Croy told the TV station. "The door was open and the van was running. He was on his way out."
Croy bashed the robber in the head with a 2-pound sledgehammer. Four times.
"He wouldn't go down," Croy explained.
Police and paramedics soon arrived to take the gunman to the hospital in handcuffs. His weapon turned out to be a paintball gun.
The pizza shop gave Croy $500 for his trouble, but he says he's no hero.
"I'm sure others in the store," he shrugged, "if they'd had that opportunity, would've done it."
