After an armed man pointed a gun at the head of 60-year-old convenience store clerk Ibrahim Rahmoun, he and his boss grabbed a gun and took action leading to an exchange of gunfire outside a Northwest Side 7-Eleven.
The guy shot two bullets at us, Rahmoun said. We shot back at them. We shot eight.
I wasnt scared. ... I dont care, it doesnt bother me. When you work the night shift, a lot of robberies happen said Rahmoun, who was at the counter when two men entered the 7-Eleven at 2900 W. Montrose Ave. about 1:25 a.m. Friday and one said: Give me your money.''
I said, 'Are you joking?' Rahmoun said.
Im not joking! the robber yelled as he pulled a gun and placed its tip at his head and told him would blow up his head, Rahmoun said.
He gave the men between $100 and $130 and the two fled. But Rahmoun and his boss looked at store's surveillance camera and spotted a car parked in the alley.
The supervisor grabbed their gun and they walked outside.We went back to see which car and he started shooting at us," the clerk said.

Must be a new Moon!
That was a couple days ago.
The big question is which protected class wins the coin toss..
Years ago I was at a gas station late one night waiting in line to pay. Guy in front of me says to the attendant behind thick Plexiglas “this is a robbery”. Then he said “just kidding”. Nobody else there thought it was funny and the attendant didn’t think so either. We just looked at each other like, what a moron. I have no doubt the attendant had a weapon behind there.
Here’s when you need to own two or more guns. After an incident like this, the police will confiscate the gun for the investigation. If you only own one gun, you are suddenly defenseless against angry relatives of the perps.
That's when you give 'em your Raven 25 Auto.
Yes. It sounds like he open-carried a firearm into a public alley when under no immediate threat and then discharged said firearm inside the city limits.
I hope he has a good lawyer.
