A robber got a couple cold ones to the face when he tried to grab cash from a Port Orange, Fla. gas station on Tuesday.

“I scared him and he ran away,” Patel told KSN.

ABC News reports that Patel ran after the suspect, who cops identified as Steven Paul Larson.

Police arrested Larson at his home and charged him with battery and armed robbery.
