According to reports, Mr. Wessinger entered the bank around 4:45pm armed with a handgun and a hooded sweatshirt drawn tight around his face. As he was pulling the gun from his waistband, he was wounded when a civilian at PNC produced a handgun of his own and fired two shots — hitting Mr. Wessinger in the hip and ankle area.
