A group of three armed men entered Ms. Jessie’s Stop N Shop corner store in Philadelphia and attempted to rob the establishment. The store owner responded to the threat by opening fire on the criminals, striking at least one in the head, killing him. The deceased thief’s accomplices fled the scene, but one of them was captured soon after the attempted robbery. (NBC Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pa. 01/11/16)
