Shot Brooklyn storekeeper saved my life, employee says: "The brave Brooklyn shopkeeper who snatched a gun from a gang of holdup men and killed two of them will not face criminal charges, police sources said Tuesday. Investigators believe Youssouf Drame, who is in critical condition after he was shot in the stomach, was acting in self-defense when he turned the tables on his assailants Monday night, the sources said. "He saved my life," said Drummond Bignott, 19, an employee in Drame's Crown Heights variety store. Bignott was helping a customer when the armed men burst in. "They stormed in and said, 'Everyone get down,' but he fought the guys," Bignott said Tuesday..... Despite being hit in the stomach, Drame squeezed off several shots, fatally wounding two of the would-be robbers. Shot in the torso, Leon Harris, 26, staggered to the sidewalk and died a short time later at Kings County Hospital, police said. A second man, who was not carrying identification, was shot several times in the stomach and died inside the store."
