BREAKING NEWS – Gainesville, Georgia – A Georgia man’s attempt to rob a business in the early hours of Christmas morning went awry when employees fended off the suspect, sending him slipping on ice and hitting his head on the ground, according to the Gainesville Police Department.
Luis Sajbocho-Ordonez, 30, is now facing armed robbery and aggravated assault charges.
Sajbocho-Ordonez was allegedly hiding behind a business in Gainesville, which is about 50 miles northeast of Atlanta, and pulled a gun on an employee who walked outside.
The employee got into a physical altercation with Sajbocho-Ordonez, who allegedly fired a shot after another worker exited the building and spooked him. He then allegedly tried to flee the scene but slipped on a frozen patch and hit his head. Witnesses were able to take two guns away from him until police arrived and took him into custody. He later confessed his crimes to the police, and explained that none of this would’ve happened if he stuck to his plan of only committing armed robberies in the summer.
