Quick Acting Female Store Clerk Shoots And Kills Armed Robber With One Shot

Clerk Shooting

Nothing better than the perp being dispatched with the tax payer relief shot.

Via Guns Save Lives

The clerk behind the counter at Stan’s Health Foods has not been formally identified, but it is
believed the clerk was a 46 year old woman who had previously worked in law enforcement, including a
stint with the Secret Service.

When a man entered the store wielding a 6 inch hunting knife, the clerk kept her composure the
entire time. It seems she was willing to let the suspect get away with some cash, but when he put
the hunting knife to her chest, she wasn’t having any of it.

She immediately drew her firearm and fired a single shot, striking the suspect in the chest.
According to Philly.com,

The man went behind the counter and threw the cash register on the floor to break it, Small said,
then began collecting the money scattered on the floor. He then put the knife to the woman’s chest,
Small said, and she sprang into action.

She drew a gun and fired a single shot into the man’s chest, Small said. The man collapsed on the
floor.

When police arrived moments later, the suspect was still clutching some cash in his left hand, Small
said. A knife was found nearby.

The man was pronounced dead shortly afterward at Aria Health-Torresdale Campus. His name has not
been released.

The clerk was not injured during the incident. This is the 43rd defensive gun use we’ve documented
in the state of Pennsylvania and the 1,183rd defensive gun use we’ve documented overall.
