Sandwich Shop Manager Serves Armed Robber a Beat Down

Manager wrestles gun away from armed robber

A would-be armed robber should file a complaint against Miami Subs, because he certainly received rude service after he was beat down by the store's manager during a robbery attempt this week.

Devane Jenkins, 16, was taken to the hospital and then arrested for attempted armed robbery after he took a beating from the store manager of the Miami Subs located at 661 West Sunrise Boulevard.

Police claim Jenkins walked into the sandwich shop Sunday evening and ordered two employees to go to the safe. Jenkins was holding a revolver.

After the employee and store manager Steve Lebrun opened the safe, Lebrun got the feeling Jenkins was going to kill them both anyway so he went from turkey to hero and jumped on the would be robber.

After a brief struggle, Lebrun wrestled the gun away from the stunned teen. Jenkins tried to escape through the drive-thru window, but the manager again blocked his retreat.

Then Jenkins tried to go through Lebrun to get to the restaurant's exit, but that didn't work either. A customer in the restaurant also got involved and the two delivered a few knuckle sandwiches to Jenkins and held him down until cops arrived.

Now that's what we call service.
