Three people were shot Monday evening in the parking lot of a Rally's restaurant in the 2800 block of South Jefferson Avenue, near the intersection with Gravois.

A brief gunfight erupted about 6:20 p.m. between two men armed with handguns and a 26-year-old man they were attempting to rob, St. Louis police Lt. John Green said.

The two would-be robbers were shot by the intended victim. One of the men, 33, was shot in the head. His apparent accomplice, 32, was shot in the abdomen, police said.

The man shot in the head was in critical condition Tuesday at a local hospital. The man shot in the abdomen was listed as serious.

The intended holdup victim was shot in both legs. He was treated at a local hospital and released.

The victim fired first at the robbers, who returned fire, police said.

Sounds like the intended victim was a pretty good shot. Sounds like he had some range time.

The victim needs a change of ammo apparently, something more like hydra shock personal defense would make sure that the scum wouldn’t be using up public health care funds and returning to their criminal ways.
