Video: Father with Kids at McDonald’s Shoots and Kills Masked Gunman

Birmingham, Alabama — A father and one of his two sons are recovering after being shot during an attempted robbery at a Birmingham-area McDonald’s.

As the father and two sons were let out of the store by an employee at around 10:45 PM, a masked gunman opened fire, injuring the father and one of the sons.

But the father fired back, wounding and ultimately killing the masked gunman.

Here’s a local news report from the scene.

Here’s how it all went down according to a story on CBSNews.com:

“An father dining with his children at McDonald’s in Birmingham, Alabama, fatally shot a masked man who entered the fast food restaurant and opened fire, CBS affiliate WIAT reports.

Birmingham Police responded to the McDonald’s at around 10:45 p.m. Sunday after receiving reports that multiple people had been shot. When an employee opened the door to let a father and his two sons out of the restaurant, a masked man entered. The man then began shooting. Investigators say it is not clear whether he intended to rob the McDonald’s or was targeting someone inside.

The father then opened fire on the gunman, fatally wounding him. The unidentified dad and one of his kids, a minor, were also struck, but do not have life-threatening injuries.”
