IN: Store owner shoots robber: "On Saturday, a man posing as a customer attacked Masters in the back of the narrow store with a pair of scissors, part of a failed robbery attempt. Masters shot the man, but not before suffering a number of minor injuries, including a shallow stab wound to the chest. The suspect, identified as 52-year-old Tommie Bowling of South Bend, remained hospitalized Monday. He is expected to survive. Having served in the U.S. Army in the 1960s, including as a member of the Military Police, Masters said he knew how to respond in such a situation. Masters said he backed off and offered to hand over the cash, located in the cash drawer behind the counter. However, instead of handing the cash to Bowling, he took the drawer and shoved it into Bowling's chest, causing him to stumble backward. As Bowling recovered, Masters said he reached for his gun, a .44 caliber pistol located behind where the cash drawer had been. Masters said he raised the gun and fired from the hip, striking Bowling in the stomach."
