One robber held a .22 pistol on service station attendant Buddy Richards of Columbia, S.C., while his partner smashed the station’s cash register with a pickaxe. The two then left the station, but Richards pulled a revolver and ordered them to halt. He made them lie down on the pavement outside the station and flagged a passing police cruiser.
