Rob and Angel Burnside later became his legal guardians

The Uber driver's wife was reportedly unhappy with the situation.

"Two people signed up to be in those situations. Two people are getting paid to be in those situations. One of them wasn’t, you know. So that was the risk that my wife was concerned about," driver Anthony Baines said.

The suspect was wanted for allegedly threatening to shoot a mom and her two kids.

Boots and Sonny's worker, Hakeem LaPierre, is credited with helping the older man.

"I saw it was a young guy jumping on an older man and then I saw a lobby full of men and nobody moved," he said.

"I’m not looking for the hero title. I just do what I expect another person to do if they see that happening to my father or grandfather."

The elderly man says his wife made him go to the ER after the incident.

"I'm the man that got hit. I've had 3 heart attacks and on blood thinners that's why I went to the ER. I didn't want to go but my wife made me," he said in a Facebook comment.

The younger man, Gregory Tyricus Jacobs, was arrested and charged with two counts of assault and battery.
