NJ:Update on Robber shot by Store Owner

Surveillance video captured an image of the robber, who was later identified as 28-year-old Mustafa Sheffield, running out of the store, and the shop owner running behind him. However, police did confirm that the shooting occurred inside the store. There was also another video, presumably from inside the business, which police are reviewing as part of the investigation and has not been made public.

As Sheffield ran off, he dropped his gun, leaving it behind on the sidewalk in front of the store. A short time later, he showed up at a local hospital, where he later died from the single gunshot wound.

Although police said that no charges have been filed against the store owner, whose name is being withheld, the case will likely still be reviewed by the grand jury. The gun used to stop the robbery was a legal and registered firearm, which the store owner had a valid permit to own and carry.
