Crap, I have OC'ed numbers of times at numerous Subway Rest. and never really thought I could be mistook as a "would be" robber by an armed itchy trigger fingered employee. Funny though, all my interactions regarding OC happen at Subway Rest. It doesn't state this inthe article, but I suppose these guys didn't walk in hosltered and they were probably dressing the part of a robber.

Interesting. Thanks for the heads up as I don't get much Charlotte news east of Raleigh.
