Family members of the two masked men shot to death after allegedly robbing a store in Reading spoke out Tuesday.
"It's not fair," said Virginia Medina, mother of 24-year-old William Medina, who police said robbed Krick's Korner store alongside 18-year-old Robert De Carr on Monday.
The two men were shot and killed by a private citizen while leaving the store, and family members want to see charges pressed.
"[William] had no right to lose his life over something that man could have called the police for," said Medina. "He took the law into his own hands and walked away scot-free."
"How about if people just start running around here, policing the city on their own? How much worse is it going to get?" said Peter Ratel, Medina's cousin.
The family members said they are hurt by comments suggesting the alleged robbers were "thugs."
According to Medina, William was "no big hard criminal" and was rather a family-man who loved his young daughter.
Robert De Carr was described similarly by his sister, Taylor De Carr. "My brother was a good kid," she told 69 News.

Anyone want to bet that these two Democrats won’t vote in the next election?
What we have here is a typical liberal reaction to an outcome they don't like. Your son is dead? Obviously it is "not fair". Anything liberals don't like is not fair, racist, etc. Well Mrs Medina, the cold hard truth is the outcome here was very fair. Your son got exactly what he deserved.

You can’t compare a justified shooting ton what a lot of police are pulling off these days, it’s the same in Canada, they’re a force unto their own. It’s an us vs them mentality. I know a couple who aren’t, but by and large that’s the way of it.
Give me some numbers and your sources.
Eff ‘em. The dead punk thugs and their morally diseased relatives.
I have never seen anyone on this board condemn any LEOs who dispatch armed masked robbers into the afterlife.
Why are there so many ‘youths’ of a certain tint who rob, rape, maim and kill?
Answer. Because their families see nothing wrong with robbing, raping, maiming and killing people of a different tint, and defend them and call them innocent even when it’s obvious that they are guilty.
Google "police shoot dog" and get back to us.
LOL, yeah, that'd be awful.
Heading to work, don’t have the time nor the desire to do so, if you don’t see it, your head is in the sand and nothing I can do will help anyways.
Next will be sharpton and Co.
Then the Armed Citizen will become a White Mexican Racist in the media.
Followed by the department of just us...
Fair would be your worthless @$$ being shot for bringing them into this world to bother, harass, and rob decent people.
There is an estimated 70,000,000 dogs in the US. How many have been shot by cops? How many euthanized at shelters? https://www.avma.org/KB/Resources/Statistics/Pages/Market-research-statistics-US-pet-ownership.aspx
I wonder if this person usually makes as much sense as this? William had no right to die?
If they want justice, how about going after their drug dealers, maybe IF they stayed clean all this could’ve been avoided. How about a thug hall of fame? These two can be inductees right alongside St Trayvon.
That's a piss poor attitude. The Canadians I know are can do people. You must be in Ontario.
Shoot the family members too.
