Robbery at Kansas City gun store

[philw]

TWO men attempted to rob a Kansas City, Missouri, gun store Thursday and ended up leaving with less money than they had when they came in, the Kansas City Star reported Saturday.
One of the would-be robbers entered the store around 2:00pm Thursday local time and asked to buy a box of ammunition.
When the 65-year-old clerk, who wore a shoulder holster and a handgun in plain view, told the man it would be about $50, the man said he needed to get more money and left.
The man returned around 5:00pm with another man and tried to pay with two $20 bills. When the clerk said he was $10 short, the customer pulled a handgun from his waistband and demanded that the clerk hand over the money in the cash register.
The clerk was able to tell that the man's gun was not loaded and pulled his own gun from his shoulder holster.
"His eyes got as big as two dinner plates," said the clerk, who was not named.
"Before I got mine pointed at him, he ran to the door at, like, 95mph. I'm surprised he didn't bust the glass out of the door."
The fleeing robbers left the $40 behind.
"I wear this gun like this, hoping it will be a deterrent," the clerk said Friday.
"But he [the gunman] basically made his own decision to take the chance of dying, and he just about did. I was going to shoot him."

The following mind-boggling attempt at a crime spree appeared to be the robber's first, due to his lack of a previous record of violence, and his terminally stupid choices:

1. His target was H&J Leather & Firearms. A gun shop.

2. The shop was full of customers - firearms customers.

3. To enter the shop, the robber had to step around a marked police patrol car parked at the front door.

4. A uniformed officer was standing at the counter, having coffee before work.

Upon seeing the officer, the would-be robber announced a holdup, and fired a few wild shots.    The officer and a clerk promptly returned fire, covered by several customers who also drew their guns, thereby removing the confused criminal from the gene pool.

No one else was hurt.

Just goes to prove the old adage:  Never take a knife bat to a gunfight.
