JACKSON, MS (WLBT) -
A robber was shot earlier Saturday evening when he held up a barber at gunpoint in Jackson.
Jackson Police were on the scene around 5:30 at Elegante Coiffures Beauty and Barber Salon on Medgar Evers near the intersection of Rutledge Avenue.
Witnesses told WLBT that a barber stepped outside to go to his vehicle when he was suddenly approached by a person with a gun.
Police say the 17-year old took money from the barber and attempted to take his vehicle.
Another barber in the business saw the two struggling. That co-worker then retrieved a weapon and opened fire striking the suspected robber in the face. He then ran across the street and hid in the woods.

That co-worker then retrieved a weapon and opened fire striking the suspected robber in the face. He then ran across the street and hid in the woods....Why’d the co-worker run across the street and hide in the woods?
No “robbin” going on, just redistribution of wealth. Clearly the child was only getting what is owed him.
Reparations.
