Arizona Self-Defense Shooting: PD: Suspect shot, killed while trying to rob medical pot seller :: 09/15/2014
PHOENIX (CBS5) - A 19-year-old man died from gunshot wounds when he tried to rob a medical marijuana seller at gunpoint Thursday night, a Phoenix police spokesman said.
The suspect called the seller after seeing an ad on Craigslist and agreed to meet at El Reposo Park in the area of 7th Street and Southern Avenue, Phoenix police Sgt. Trent Crump said.
The suspect walked up to the 54-year-old seller, who was in the back seat of a vehicle, about 9:45 p.m., Crump said.
But when the seller asked to see the suspect's medical marijuana card, the suspect pulled a handgun and tried to rob the victim.
Crump said the suspect's attention was diverted and the victim also pulled a handgun and shot the suspect several times.
The suspect returned fire and struck the victim's vehicle at least once, but did not hit the seller, Crump said.
The victim and several witnesses who arrived at the park together fled, but were quickly stopped by officers, Crump said.
The suspect was taken to a hospital, where he died.
The victim and witnesses were questioned by police and released, pending a review of the case, Crump said.
