Unintended Consequence

FOR PAYNE, ALA.  A gas station owner was run over and killed when he tried to stop a driver from leaving without paying for $52 worth of gasoline, police said.


The driver was at large Sunday, and police said the case was being investigated as a robbery-homicide.


Witnesses told police that Husain Caddi, owner of Fort Payne Texaco, "grabbed onto the vehicle" Friday when the driver began to drive off.


Caddi was dragged onto a highway, and was run over by a rear wheel of the thief's sport utility vehicle, police said. (AP)
