LIBERTY, MO (KCTV) -
A bank robbery suspect is in a Kansas City hospital. He was shot while trying to hold up a bank in Trimble, MO.
First Security Bank is not a traditional bank where just anybody can walk in, so police said the suspect was most likely buzzed in before he pulled a gun and demanded cash. That's where things took an unusual turn.
Trimble Police Chief Larry Fish said a civilian inside the bank pulled out a gun and shot the would-be robber. --------------cut----------
Residents said Trimble is a small town and lots of people have guns and concealed carry licenses.
"He could have saved a lot of lives doing that," Patricia McWilliams said.
She said she's glad someone inside the bank was able to defend customers and staff.
"If not, he could have done worse. He could have hurt a lot more people or stolen a lot more money," McWilliams said.
