Cook Co. honors man who shot tanning salon robber

January 19, 2011 (CHICAGO)

Jason McDaniel confronted and killed an armed robber believed to have been the so-called 'Honeybee' killer.

In December, McDaniel took on Gary Amaya during an attempted armed robbery at an Orland Park tanning salon. The gun was later traced back to a series of October shootings in Chicago's southern suburbs and Indiana.

Those shootings left one person dead and two others wounded.
