The excitement starts at 3:40, when an actual customer walks in the door. Within a minute he has taken the robber's gun, and soon after that he shoots and kills the robber. The shooting takes place off camera.
You have to watch closely, but the robber puts his gun down on the counter, gets a piece of rope to tie up the customer, drops something on the floor, goes to pick it up... and the customer makes his move.
The robber turns out to be a very bad dude known as the honeybee killer.
The civilian who killed the killer was a 29 year old man named Jason McDaniel, who says he doesn't want to be thought of as a hero:
"A hero is a police officer, a fireman, the troops that do this every day. Me, I'm just a father. A new father, wanting to come home to his child," McDaniel said.You hear stuff like that from heroes. A lot.
You and I may think he was brave
to grab away the robber's gun
but he just sees it as
doing what had to be done.
"Mr. McDaniel, after offering the money in his pocket, explaining that he had a young child, the comment by Amaya was 'whatever.'"

Good example of a "whatever" that goes beyond annoying and into deeply chilling. Thanks for pointing that one out!
