A police officer shot dead a man suspected of shooting his way into a 7-Eleven convenience store early Thursday morning in Irving, police say.
The store was closed for business when a 69-year-old man opened fire on the front windows of the building at about 1:15 a.m., police spokesman Robert Reeves said.
A clerk inside the store at the time hid behind the counter and called police to report the shooting, Reeves said. A police officer confronted the man as he was leaving the building and opened fire, striking him.

Somehow this will be portrayed as a racist Covid-19 death.
Depends on whether toilet paper was found next to the body.
Who, what, why, when, and where? We get the when, and it took two reporters.
Don’t look at me, I had no control over this. Feel free to go to the link and complain to the source organization. :P
I’m not complaining, merely pointing out the absurdity of the “new press”. Just a question, not a condemnation. Why post articles without at least 2 or 3 of the prerequisites?
None of that matters.
It's obviously Trumps fault.
Again, I direct you to the source. :P
Nothing good ever happens at 7- Eleven.
Slim Jims and Ripple
I could understand trying to shoot my way out of a 7-11 but certain not shoot my way in.
I Googled it. Apparently they quit making Ripple a while back. It would be a fine drink for this Dempanic lockdown, though!
My bad. I meant Pandemic, of course.
Fox this am had a story that liquor consumption is up 75%. No indication if it was at the retail or distributor level. I suspect retail is up due to bars being closed.
Well, if you really, really, really, really want some of the overpriced 7-Eleven toilet paper and the store’s locked up... :P
LOL! If you tell me Slim Jims are gone too my life will be in shambles;)
