Fayetteville, N.C. — A convenience store clerk turned the tables on two armed robbers Saturday afternoon.
It happened at the Amoco gas station at 1711 Clinton Road in Fayetteville around 3:30.

The wounded suspect was taken to Cape Fear Valley Medical Center. His wound was not life-threatening, police said.
The other suspect ran away, and police were looking for him.
Police did not have a good description, but said each man was wearing red bandana over his face.
Police said they had not determined whether the clerk would face any charges.
