A Vallejo restaurant worker says one of her regular customers is a hero for coming to her aid when she was confronted by an apparent robber, who shot him dead.
says one of her regular customers is a hero for coming to her aid when she was confronted by an apparent robber, who shot him dead.
Brasher said Robert Sundin sacrificed his life for hers by protecting her Thursday morning. Sundin, 70, was a U.S. Marine Corps veteran who worked in the VA healthcare system. He was also a church volunteer.At 5:30 a.m. each weekday morning, like clockwork, Sundin would drive from his Napa home and pull up outside Scotty's Restaurant at Tennessee and Tuolumne streets in Vallejo. He'd keep an eye on Brasher as she opened up the restaurant.
"He came up to my door, and he pointed his finger at me. He was pointing at my purse. I don't know if he used his finger or a gun," Brasher said."The guy grabs him. And I can see Bob pulling away like that, and that's when I heard the gunshot go off," she said.At Scotty's, Sundin would sit at the same counter seat every morning, with his newspaper, making small talk or joking with regulars.
"That's what makes it hard. He was just such a wonderful man. It was just somebody you come across and you feel comfortable talking to him," said Scotty's owner Nay Ung.
