Texas Self-Defense: Clerk fatally shoots man who tried to rob Arlington convenience store :: 03/07/2017
A would-be robber was fatally shot Monday night by a clerk at an Arlington convenience store, police said.
The shooting occurred about 7:45 p.m. at the Super Save Food Store in the 2500 block of East Abram Street, near State Highway 360.
The clerk told police a man came into the store with the intention of robbing him, but the clerk pulled out a gun and fatally shot him, police Lt. Christopher Cook said.
That man, who was 22, was pronounced dead at the scene. The clerk told police the man was armed, and officers found a gun near his body.
Surveillance footage confirmed the clerk's story, Cook said Tuesday.
Police detained a second man, but he was determined to be a customer.
Another employee who was in the store at the time hid in the cooler during the incident, Cook said.
A customer also called 911, but it's unclear whether that person was in the store during the robbery attempt.
