Thug pulls gun in convenience store, but clerk also is armed — and isn't having one bit of it
Memphis police released video showing what went down after a male pulled a gun during an attempted robbery in a convenience store Monday morning, WHBQ-TV reported.
Police said video shows a man dressed in a white hoodie starting to pull out a gun inside the Quick Check Store on Alcy Road near Perry Road around 10 a.m., the station said.
'Criminals beware and think twice!'
But police said the armed male at that moment jerks back and runs away, WHBQ reported.
Police said the clerk fired a shot at the would-be robber and struck him, the station noted.
Later Tuesday, police released doorbell camera video showing the suspect unmasked and dressed in an orange sweatshirt running into a home, WHBQ reported.
The new video also zeroes in on some type of stain in the suspect's chest area, the station said.
Police added to WHBQ that they're still looking for the suspect, who's described as between the ages of 18 and 22 and standing about 5 feet 5 inches tall with a tattoo over one of his eyebrows.
The station also said he was wearing black pants and black shoes as well as a red shirt underneath his white hoodie.
More from WHBQ:
Under Tennessee's Stand Your Ground Law, the clerk was within their rights to shoot. It says any person is justified in using force if they reasonably believe there is an imminent danger of death or serious bodily injury. Pulling out that gun would enforce that "reasonable" belief.The clerk had no duty to retreat or try to get away but could, as the law states, stand their ground.
Those with information about the suspect's whereabouts are asked to call CrimeStoppers at 901-528-CASH, the station said.
Commenters under WHBQ's Facebook post about the incident did not hold back:
- "I bet he won't go back to that store to try and rob it," one commenter stated.
- "Good job store clerk," another user added.
- "Need more of this type of news," another commenter declared.
- "Criminals beware and think twice!" another user noted.

Two people shot by federal officers in Portland only a day after lethal ICE shooting
A man and a woman were shot and injured by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers in Portland, according to local media reports.
The two people were transported to a hospital for treatment of their injuries, although their conditions were not released to the public.
'We cannot sit by while constitutional protections erode and bloodshed mounts. ... As Mayor, I call on ICE to end all operations in Portland until a full investigation can be completed.'
The incident comes only a day after a 37-year-old woman was shot and killed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers after she tried to hit them with her vehicle, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
Portland police said they responded to reports of the shooting at about 2:24 p.m. near Northeast 146th Avenue and East Burnside.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation in Portland said in a post on social media that it was investigating the incident.
The DHS said in a statement that U.S. Border Patrol agents were conducting a targeted vehicle stop that included a "Venezuelan illegal alien affiliated with the transnational Tren de Aragua prostitution ring." When the agents identified themselves, the driver "weaponized" the vehicle and tried to run them over.
"Fearing for his life and safety, an agent fired a defensive shot. The driver drove off with the passenger, fleeing the scene," the DHS added.
"Portland is now grappling with another deeply troubling incident," said Portland Mayor Keith Wilson, a Democrat. "We cannot sit by while constitutional protections erode and bloodshed mounts. Portland is not a 'training ground' for militarized agents, and the 'full force' threatened by the administration has deadly consequences. As Mayor, I call on ICE to end all operations in Portland until a full investigation can be completed."
City Council President Elana Pirtle-Guiney spoke about the two injured during Portland's city council meeting.
"As far as we know, both of these individuals are still alive, and we are hoping for more positive updates throughout the afternoon," she said.
