According to police, a male suspect approached a man and his girlfriend at the pumps at the "Zip In Zip Out" Chevron Gas Station located at 11095 Ella Blvd. Police say the suspect pistol-whipped the man at the gas station and demanded his wallet.
After investigating, police found out that a bystander, unrelated to the victim or the suspect, witnessed the robbery and shot the suspect. The shooter then instructed the robbery victim to retrieve what the suspect had taken before leaving the scene.
"I was outside my apartment smoking a cigarette and I heard two gunshots go off," said Kirby Robertson, a witness.
The robbery suspect later died after being taken to the hospital in critical condition.
"Yeah,
I think he was justified. I would justify him. We need more people like
that out here. More people to protect us out here like that," said
Leroy Nortfleet, a resident in the area.
