This is propaganda brother. He'd actually have to show up with a gun to rob the store.
Whatever, put the guy in jail. Not even remotely heartwarming to me. I volunteer at several homeless shelters and you can get food for yourself and your family without having to pull a bat on someone.
i pulled a knife off a guy that pulled one on me at an ATM in college and it was amazing how "save me jesus" kept coming out of his mouth right before my size 13 went in.
1000-1 odds this guy robs another store within 30 days. It worked once for him, maybe again.
