Amale entered a 7-Eleven in Oklahoma City just before midnight Thursday and tried to buy burritos, beef sticks, and ice cream with a counterfeit $100 bill, according to a KOKH-TV news video.
But the female clerk wasn't buying the con.
What's more, the clerk said she was calling police, KWTV-DT reported — and she refused the male's demand that she give him back the counterfeit bill, Gary Knight of the Oklahoma City Police Department added to the station.
Then the thug reportedly got violent.
.....he grabbed his hands around my neck, and pushed me out of the counter space."
Knight added to KWTV that "at some point during this altercation, she pulled out a pistol and shot him." Police said the suspect — who also was carrying a knife — was shot in the stomach and that the entire attack was caught on video, the station noted.
The suspect — identified as 59-year-old Kenneth Thompson — fled the store and called 911, KOKH reported.
“Reporting he had been shot,” Knight told KWTV. “Although he was not forthcoming with what happened when officers first met with him.”
Thompson was arrested at the hospital and charged with assault and battery, threatening acts of violence, attempting to pass a fake bill, and a felony warrant for violating parole, KOKH said.
KWTV noted that he'll be transferred to the Oklahoma County Detention Center once he's released from the hospital.
As for Dilyard, police told KWTV that she suffered minor injuries and was not arrested; police confirmed to KOKH, in fact, that she's protected under Oklahoma's self-defense law.
Yet after all that, 7-Eleven fired Dilyard on Monday for using her gun...

OK Brandon lol
So I guess 7-11 is okay with ppl robbing their stores then. Maybe the employees should steal from them too, especially since they obviously don’t GAF about their safety.
It bewilders me to think about what she could have done to keep her job. Certainly 7-Eleven doesn’t hire corpses.
It’s kind of a click-baity title. I’m against what they did, but they didn’t kill her.
Wrongful termination suit, you have the right of self defense in Oklahoma.
Wawa rules.
I say QT!
I stopped doing business with 7-11 over 20 years ago because of their anti-2A stance. I see they haven’t changed much. There are hardly any of them left in my part of Texas.
she needs to sue 7-11 for creating and promoting an unsafe work environment.
She’s probably better off not working for them because I believe many criminals will now assume 7/11 has their backs when they set out to rob one.
Big time!
Yeah. I agree, but did not write the headline. Perfectly thinkable, if your boss is a d!ck.
A 7-11 worker saved my infant son’s life. He got out of the house and was dancing around in the crosswalk of an expressway in nothing but a diaper. She saw him, rushed out and grabbed him into the 7-11, where we got him vack. I wonder if they sanctioned her for leaving her station.

(with a counterfeit $100 bill,)
Usually it’s a $20 bill
But hey, he tried...
Most of these employers don’t care if
their employees are killed in these
types of jobs.
They often leave them alone at night.
(59-year-old Kenneth Thompson)
Weird. His picture still hasn’t come up
easily since this happened.
Hers, yes...
Love QuikTrip.
Still they usually leave their employees
alone at night too.
There’s a couple of stores 🏪🏪 that finally
at least have a security guy in them.
One often has an off duty cop. Or it did.
I haven’t stopped at that one recently.
