Security guard fights attackers

According to reports, just after nine Tuesday night, the security guard for the restaurant, twenty-five year old Oscar Campos, was on patrol when two Creole men attacked him and tried to steal his thirty-eight-caliber revolver. Campos resisted and fought the men but was shot in his left arm and in his side. Although he was bleeding from his wounds, Campos continued to fight and got back his gun. Campos managed to get off three shots as they ran away. He was rushed to the Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital where he remains in a stable condition. Police have not made any arrests. Neighbors tell News Five Campos’ girlfriend is planning to take him abroad for medical treatment.
