The Galveston County Daily News reports that around 2:10 p.m. on Saturday, a man in a white Ford F-150 pickup truck pulled up at a McDonald's drive-through in League City, Texas. The man's 4-year-old son was in the backseat of the vehicle.
An armed robber walked up to the truck and pointed a gun at the driver. Fearing for his and his son's life, the man, who is licensed to carry a weapon, pulled out his own gun and shot the robber three times, striking him in the chest.

charges should be brought against the driver.
