Florida Convenience Store Robber Shot By Concealed Carrier

Posted at 9:19 am on January 26, 2017 by Bob Owens

A would-be robber who pointed a gun at a convenience store clerk this morning should have paid more attention to the other customers in the store, such as the one carrying a concealed handgun.

Investigators in Florida say a legally armed customer shot a man in the thigh during an attempted robbery at a Tampa Bay area gas station.

Pasco County Sheriff’s officials say in a news release that the shooting happened just before 7 a.m. Thursday in Wesley Chapel, which is north of Tampa.

According to authorities, the man entered the Marathon gas station, pointed a gun at the clerk and demanded money. That’s when the customer shot him in the right thigh. A sheriff’s deputy who arrived at the scene subdued the suspect at the front door. He was flown to a hospital with injuries that aren’t considered life-threatening.
