ST. CHARLES, Mo. – The St. Charles Police Department says a 26-year-old man from St. Louis City on a violent crime spree was shot and killed by another man who was witnessing an armed robbery in progress at the QuikTrip located at 2260 First Capitol Drive.
...
The witness who shot the suspect told police the had stopped at QuikTrip, used the restroom and made a purchase. The witness was walking back to his vehicle parked in front of the store when he saw a black SUV drive into the parking lot abruptly and stop directly in front of the door without pulling into a parking space.
The witness saw the suspect who was carrying a backpack run into the QuikTrip and turn toward the coffee pot area where the 26-year-old female clerk was standing. The suspect dragged the clerk toward the front counter while she was screaming. The witness saw the suspect holding a knife to her throat.
The witness retrieved his 9mm handgun, entered the store and confronted the suspect. The suspect grabbed his backpack and told the witness, “I have something for you.” The suspect then came from around the counter and approached the witness who then fired several times at the suspect. The suspect fell to the floor. The witness and clerk were not harmed, and both called 911.

I don’t think he will face criminal charges but the prosecutor has his own problems.
My exact sentiments. I know there are some seemingly abusive situations but we never get told the ‘full’ story, only the ‘abusive’ looking part when it involves da black mannn cuz he dint do nuffin.
Comic books are probably all many of them can read.
you and me both.

I don’t get why this keeps on happening. In this day and age, every clerk should be behind some sort barrier of that’s hard to breach. It need not look like a fortress. But it should be hard to breach.
The witness offered superior gifts -- prizes for playing.
The witness saw the suspect holding a knife to her throat. The witness retrieved his 9mm handgun...
That's a good witness. Can-DO! to the rescue.
“Oh yeah? Well I got something for you too.....”
I love a story with a happy ending.
((golf clap))
The ‘blog patrol’ you refer to IMHO does a great job of policing the click farmers who would make money off of this forum while not supporting it.
The one on the left looks a little shady...
Love this story.
Sounds like the perp’s plan was to use a knife unless a gun became necessary.
Oopsie!!
They should try to figure out who the suspect’s father was and throw him into prison. His lack of self control affected dozens of lives and he should be held responsible for it, including the death of his son. The problem is the lack of a family structure and responsibility for parenting after some dog has satisfied his sexual urges.
No, but he'll be voting for democrats for decades.
This happened in St Charles Co, which is the political and demographic reverse of St Louis City on the other side of the crick.
Thankfully we all don’t live in New Jack City or some such place.
St Charles is suburbia NW of St Louis proper.
Maybe you should take a nap, you're so tired.
Nighty-night, Karen. Sweet dreams.
Did you pee before getting into bed?
Laundry costs money, sweetie.

Did he “blow a lung out”?
The first part of your wish is what the Leftists would like to see happen. They will replace the police in a heartbeat with more obedient minions if there is a strike.
The second part of your wish does not connect with the first part of your wish. Leftist scumbags may indeed be chased out of office; it will not be police strikes that remove them.
It won't be elections either.
