LAWRENCE, Mass. (MyFoxBoston.com) – A 69-year-old liquor store owner allegedly thwarted an attempted armed robbery of McCann's Liquors on South Union Street Sunday night.

Arturo Taveras, owner of McCann's Liquors, has been robbed before and he was not about to be victimized again.

Taveras told police a masked man walked into his store at about 10:30 p.m., pulled a gun on him, and demanded all his money; however, instead of emptying his register, Taveras removed his gun from his waistband and pointed it at the suspect, reports The Eagle Tribune.
