[QUOTE="flaboy, post: 614786, member: 1726"] [i]OCOEE, Fla. -- A good samaritan shot and killed a suspected robber during an attack on a clerk at a convenience store late Monday night. The good samaritan said he saw the armed robber beating the clerk with what he believed was a gun and when the robber turned toward him he opened fire. Orange County deputies and Ocoee police surrounded the Kangaroo Express convenience store on Franklin Street (see map) in Ocoee with crime tape. Officers said they found the suspected armed robber lying on the floor dead inside the store. "I'm a shaken up obviously," said Christopher, the good samaritan. Christopher said he walked in the convenience store to buy cigarettes and told investigators he noticed a man acting suspicious and went back to his SUV in the parking lot to grab his cell phone and called 911. "I heard the woman in the store screaming, 'Help, help, help' and I grabbed my firearm and went in the store and that's how it ended," he said. Christopher said he shot the man twice because he was brutally attacking the clerk and thought he saw the attempted robber with a gun, which ended up being a beer bottle. "She was being hit with a beer bottle. She has a knot on the back of her head," Christopher said. His mother and a friend showed up at the store to be with Christopher while crime scene investigators took pictures of the evidence and collected it. "It's a very bad situation, but not only that, it teaches people right now that want to go out and rob stores that you never know who's going to be in the parking lot," he said. Christopher said he does have a permit to carry a gun. Investigators said that no charges have been filed against him. [/i] Good for him. Maybe this will make some stop and think. [/QUOTE]
