A Chick-fil-A employee in Florida sprang into action Wednesday and stopped a carjacking in progress, rescuing a woman and her baby.
The incident happened at a Fort Walton Beach area restaurant, with remarkable footage showing the fast-food employee tackling 43-year-old suspect William Branch.
“A young employee outside a Fort Walton Beach area restaurant rushed to help a screaming woman holding a baby this afternoon after a man grabbed her keys and tried to take her car,” the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.
“The victim was getting the infant out of her car at a restaurant at 743 Beal Parkway when she says Branch approached her wielding a stick and demanding her keys. He then grabbed the keys from the waistband of her pants, opened her car door, and got inside.”
“When the victim began screaming for help an employee at Chick-fil-A ran to intervene. Branch punched the young man in the face but the second victim was not seriously injured.”
“A major shout-out to this young man for his courage,” the Sheriff’s Office concluded.
