(BIRMINGHAM, Ala.) – A McDonald's customer is being called after a shot of gunman who opened fire on one of the fast-food chain restaurants in Alabama.
The shootout happened at McDonald's in Birmingham. Employee Markus Washington said he was cooking burgers shortly before closing when he heard several gunshots. He told us that he was a little more busy than he was, and hid while more shots rang out – at least 15 total.
"All we hear is like gunfire," Washington told WBRC-TV. "So in my mind, I'm imagining everyone is dead."
Saturday night, Birmingham police Sgt. Bryan Shelton told local news outlets.
A man who was leaving the McDonalds with his two sons, who later died at a local hospital, Shelton said. The armed customer and one of his sons, a juvenile, were also wounded.
"Right now it appears to be a decision made by a child and a decision made in his life," Shelton told al.com.
Sgt. Johnny Williams, Birmingham police spokesman, said Monday's father's and his injuries were not considered life threatening.
Police did not release the slain gunman's name Monday, and Williams said it was being withheld pending notification of the man's relative. He said he did not have a crime.
Washington, the employee who hid in the freezer, had nothing but praise for the customer who fought back.
"He's my hero," said Washington. "Because I can not imagine how it would have gone if he was not armed."
