Man tries to rob gas station, gets hosed

Lowell, Massachusetts - A man who tried to rob a Lowell gas station wound up getting hosed. A man believed to be holding a knife, attempted to rob a gas attendant at the BP Station at the corner of Andover and High Streets. Surveillance video captured the suspect walking up to the pump and then taking off running. What it doesn’t show is the attendant, who was working at the pump, grabbed the nozzle, aimed it toward the suspect, and fired. “He tried to spray him with the gas,” station owner Raj Patel said.  More
