Florida Self-Defense: Man killed during foiled robbery of Orange Park store :: 11/28/2016

A man was fatally shot by a store clerk during a foiled armed robbery of an Orange Park convenience store early Saturday, according to the Clay County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies called to the Prime Stop Food Store in the 3600 block of Peoria Road about midnight found a man lying on the floor in front of the counter with a loaded handgun nearby and a vehicle still running out front, the Sheriff’s Office said.

The clerk told deputies he was already suspicious of the man, identified as 29-year-old William Kyle Smith, after he came in wearing sunglasses. He said when the man pulled out a gun and approached the counter, he drew his own gun and shot him, according to the Sheriff’s Office.

Smith was pronounced dead at the scene.

The name of the clerk, who has a conceal-and-carry permit, has not been released. Neither has surveillance video of the incident, which deputies said was caught on camera.

The store was open for business Saturday afternoon. An employee declined comment.
