A would-be armed robber was shot by his intended victim Monday afternoon by a West Palm Beach gas station, said Capt. David Bernhardt, spokesman for city police.

The man sustained non-life-threatening injuries and is being taken to a local hospital, Bernhardt said.

No one else was injured in the 1 p.m. incident at 1229 North Dixie Highway, he said.

There is no other information available at this time.

This is a different story from the self defense at a Michigan gas station a few days ago.

Yeah the other had a happier ending with a “won’t be robber” deflated in an alley.

I just wonder who in the wild ,wild, wild world of sports
( to steal a clever phrase) pays for these pre-existing conditions?

Middle of the day and looks like a halfway decent area on Google maps.

Thank you for your kind words.

If you are referring to the medical costs, they are mostly borne by the taxpayer or by most who are not indigent through higher medical costs at the hospital.
