Terrifying moment store clerk wrestles gun from armed robber
Robber entered the store near Frederick, Maryland, around 4am on July 12
He was captured on surveillance footage threatening the store's clerk
But the unflinching clerk wrestled the shotgun out of the robber's grasp
Ryan Wages, 18, of Thurmont, was taken into police custody the next day
This is the moment a heroic 7-Eleven clerk disarmed a teenage robber armed with a rifle.
The attempted robbery began in the early hours of Tuesday morning when a masked man entered the store on Sundays Lane near Frederick, Maryland.
He was captured on surveillance footage approaching the counter shortly before 4am and threatening the clerk.
While two male customers step away in shock at the sight of the shotgun, the clerk grabs the rifle and wrestles it out of the robber’s grasp.
The suspect, wearing a bandanna over part of his face and a dark hooded top, is seen running away after the clerk got hold of the firearm.
Police received information the following day that led them to arrest Ryan J. Wages, the Frederick News Post reported.
The 18-year-old, of Thurmont, was charged with armed robbery.
He remains in custody at the Frederick County Adult Detention Center on $200,000 bail, a jail spokesman confirmed to Daily Mail Online.
Abdul Ayab, who owns the store, said the suspect was screaming in his employee’s face. He didn’t identify the clerk.
‘[The man] pointed it at my employee and started screaming at my employee, screaming in his face and my employee grabbed the gun and took it out of the guy’s hands,’ Ayab told the Post.
‘And the guy ran out of the store, so now the police have the gun and he didn’t get anything.’
Sheriff’s deputies found the gun wasn’t loaded, but they increased patrols in the area of the store.
They came into tell Ayab and his staff that they took Wages into custody on Wednesday and believe he is behind other similar incidents.
The Frederick County Sheriff’s office received ‘credible information’ that connected Wages to numerous other crimes, including home invasion, assault and burglary, a spokesman told the Post.
Meanwhile, Ayab is considering adding further security measures as his store has been robbed four times in eight years.
After a robbery in March, he added increased security – but now is thinking about installing a system that will allow employees to stay behind locked doors and only buzz in customers during certain hours.
