in the back to get one. that's when the robber pulled his gun. that's when the robber put that gun up to the man's jaw and demanded money. and that's when the robber learned the hard way that his victim was a former special forces soldier with the guatemalan army. the victim makes a combat move. the robber gets off a shot and hits the construction worker in the face. but the worker's two other brothers are on the job too. they see what's happening. one of the brothers wrestles the gun away from the robber. the other robber comes out and wrestles the robber to the ground and both brothers sit on top of the robber until the cops get to the scene. book him dano. this is how one of the witnesses described what happened. he asked not to be identified. >> pretty gutsy move because the guy had a gun and hospital is it

a person pretend to be something or someone that they are not. or invent as problem that does not exist as a pretext for discrimination and harassment. >> pete you have two different teams of lawyers on both sides filing lawsuits and they each have an argument that supports their case. how do they differ? >> reporter: well the basic question is does federal law, does federal civil rights law bar discrimination based on transgender status, and the federal government says yes, it does. that both title 7 and title 9 you heard referred to the general civil rights law the right to education ban sex discrimination and the federal government's claim is if you make distinctions on transgender status that's a distinction based on sex. they say it's discrimination to say to transgender people you can't use the

they can. the state says in response no that's not what the federal law says that the government is overreaching and if that's what the government wants the law to say they should ask congress to say it. these two lawsuits will be consolidated. there will be one trial. the state wants the judge to say it's not violating the law. the justice department wants the law to say it is and to stop enforcement of it. >> a federal court ruled against virginia school board last month for a policy regarding transgender people and ballpoint rooms. could that ruling have any impact on this case? >> reporter: absolutely. the justice department says it should, the justice department says that's law of the fourth circuit in which north carolina is a part. that court has said you have to abide by the department much education's own interpretation of title 9 equality in education law and that letter from the education department that was cited in the ruling says it is

discriminate against transgender people. so they say that in essence answers the question but also cite other rulings in their defense as well. nonetheless that fourth circuit decision was the first of its kind in the fourth circuit so this is an evolving area of law. it was a very passionate statement from the attorney general opinion north carolina is after all her home state. she says there was a time when there were bathroom signs up that said certain people can't come in, we don't want to go, there we don't want to go to those dark days again. >> pete williams thank you. stay tuned after "news 4 at 6:00" because pete will have much more that's ahead on "nbc nightly news." >> in our first half hour we learned how the man accused in the shopping center shootings was stopped by a brave shopper at giant. now we're learning how prosecutors in prince george's county are building their case against him and even though we haven't seen much of the sun lately, something
