Crime Chenal Parkway robbery last night

Posted by David Koon on Tue, Dec 11, 2012 at 12:11 PM

A Little Rock man sustained two black eyes after he fought back against three robbers who demanded his wallet at a gas station at 16800 Chenal Parkway last night around 9:15 p.m.

Josh Oliver, 32, reportedly fought with two of the robbers until a third man walked up and pointed a handgun at him. At that point, the victim handed over his wallet.

The convenience store stands less than 100 yards from the Arvest Bank where a patron was shot in the leg during a robbery on Nov. 12. During that robbery, a bystander with a concealed carry permit pulled out his own handgun and fired at the fleeing suspects as they drove away. Two men have since been arrested in that crime.
