Laborer Beats Man to Stop Robbing a Woman (+ Video)

The Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office is praising a Chick-fil-A employee in Florida who they say rushed to the aid of a woman who was being carjacked.

The woman was removing the child from her vehicle outside a restaurant in Fort Walton Beach when a man approached her with a stick and demanded her keys, the sheriff’s office said in a news release.

The man took the key from the waistband of the woman’s pants, opened the car door and entered.

An employee rushed to intervene after hearing the woman screaming for help, deputies said.

The employee, identified by the Chick-fil-A operator as Michael Gordon, got into a physical struggle with the suspect, who punched Gordon in the face, according to the release.

As the two fought in the parking lot, others rushed to help subdue the suspect, according to video shared on Twitter by the sheriff’s office.

The sheriff’s office credits the clerk with being a good Samaritan who stopped the suspect from fleeing.

“A big shout out to this young man’s bravery,” the department said in the post.

Matthew Sexton, a Chick-fil-A branch operator, told CNN that everyone was safe.

“I am grateful to my amazing team member, Michael Gordon, who selflessly jumped in to help our guests. I couldn’t be more proud of his incredible care,” said Sexton.

The suspect, a 43-year-old man, was arrested and charged with carjacking with a weapon and assault, the sheriff’s office said.
