Store owner with gun to robber with knife: Hell, no, I'm not handing over the cash

“He just walked all the way over here, pulled out his knife and said, ‘Hey, open the register and give me your money.’ I thought, ‘Wow,’ ” the store owner and clerk, Ahmed Nazir, said.

He then told the crook bluntly, “no… I’m not going to do that.” The next thing the criminal saw was the barrel of a .45 cal handgun.

“I pulled out my gun and I said, ‘Just leave your knife here and leave the store.’ And he left,” Nazir added.
