Concealed carry permit holder stops armed robbery

From the Press-Register in Mobile, Alabama:

MOBILE, Alabama -- A Mobile man remains in the Mobile County Metro Jail charged with robbing a man walking out of the Church’s Chicken restaurant on Michigan Avenue late Wednesday night, police said today.
Randall Ford, 46, has been charged with the first-degree robbery, Officer Christopher Levy said. Levy said that police received a call to the Church’s Chicken in the 1200 block of Michigan Avenue about 10:52 p.m. Wednesday.
Levy said that a 32-year-old man was exiting the restaurant when a man police identified as Ford walked up to him. The robber, armed with a box cutter, threatened to rob the man, he said.
The victim took out a handgun and shot the robber in the neck, Levy said. Ford was taken to the University of South Alabama Medical Center, where he was treated for his injury. He was arrested later. . . . .
