A man allegedly attempting to rob a gas station was fatally shot by a customer Tuesday evening on the far West Side, police said.

The shooting occurred before 6:30 p.m. inside the Shell gas station at 10151 Culebra Road, according to Officer Alisia Pruneda, a San Antonio Police Department spokeswoman.

Witnesses told police a man, possibly in his early 20s, wearing a black mask approached a clerk and brandished a handgun.

Police did not immediately know whether or not the suspect made demands to the clerk.

Pruneda said two patrons, including a man with a gun and a license to carry, confronted the suspect.

Sounds like a well trained, sharp, civilian.

Texas can be great , when you’re actually around old guard Texans. San Antonia has the Alamo. that area maybe is not such a good place to hold up convenience stores.

The perp. should have gone to Austin, home of Texas liberal depravity. He made a lethal mistake.

When I was a kid my next-door neighbor, a gas station mechanic who was working the late shift, was killed by an armed robber. The customer who was also there at the time was unarmed.

He left behind a wife and four kids. They really struggled from then on. I really wish in hindsight that his customer had also been armed.

If this had been in NY, MA, NJ, DE, etc. the customer would be jailed on a $1,000,000 bond and facing murder charges, gun charges with mandatory minimum sentences, etc.

The Good Samaritan is not off the hook. The number of BETO bumper stickers in SA is sickening.. Don’t forget the La Raza Castro Brothers are from this neck of the woods. Also home of a super-liberal anti-Trump,archbishop.
