RKBA - The Right To Self Defense - Part 5

Around 5:30 p.m., two armed robbers entered Grand Market convenience store in Tucson, Ariz. and fired at the employee on duty. The employee retrieved his gun and fired back at the robbers, striking one, and causing both to flee. The injured robber made it outside the store, but died in the parking lot. Police are still searching for the other robber. The employee was also wounded in the exchange of gunfire, but is recovering at a local hospital. A frequent customer of Grand Market, Margarita Grajeda, noted that the store had been the target of robberies in the past and that at some point the store would be forced to fight back. Grajeda also expressed her sympathy for the owners of the store and said that “they’re such nice people.”
