PHOENIX - A Family Dollar employee is now behind bars after he shot a man more than 10 times at a store near 67th Avenue and Indian School Road earlier this week.
Kevin Salas Madrid, 24, had reportedly been confronting a serial shoplifter moments before he opened fire.
The alleged shoplifter punched Madrid in the face after being told to leave, and witnesses said the store clerk shot the man 10 times in response.
Court documents stated that the 24-year-old continued to shoot the man as he laid on the ground.
The victim remains in the hospital in life-threatening condition.
"Kevin stated he had made the worst decision of his life," police wrote in his probable cause statement. "Kevin explained he was struck and decided to shoot but looking back, he realized it was egregious."
Madrid was booked into jail on attempted second-degree murder charges.

He shot someone more than ten times? Who does he think he is? A cop?

Too bad he did not shoot just once between the eyes....and then claimed self defence....but 10 ? On the ground?
Attempted Manslaughter but surely not attempted murder!

The man who was shot was shoplifting, and punched the clerk in the face.
Perhaps the idiot D.A. can tell us the maximum number of shots that are allowed in such a situation.

"Kevin explained he was struck and decided to shoot but looking back, he realized it was egregious." You have the right to remain silent, lest you say something stupid that gets you charged instead of having others think this might have been an obvious case of self-defense.

To: Red Badger
Court documents stated that the 24-year-old continued to shoot the man as he laid lay on the ground. The imperfect form of the verb "to lie" (in the meaning: "to have a prone position") is "lay."
In contrast, the imperfect form of the verb "to lay" (in the meaning: "to place into position") is "laid."
So unless he was laying bricks, the original sentence is wrong.
The author is probably not a native speaker of English.

All ten shots were to the groin. Sure, the perp might live, but will it really be life?
