A would-be robber was critically injured after being shot by a store owner in Norco early Sunday in a dramatic incident that was captured on surveillance video.
An employee who reached out to KTLA said the video shows a man armed with an assault-style rifle walk into the Norco Market at 816 Sixth Street around 2:45 a.m., point the weapon at the owner, and order him to put his “hands in the air.”
Within just a few seconds, the owner steps behind a glass display and fires a shotgun at the suspect, who immediately runs out of the store screaming and shouting, “He shot my arm off!”
Officials later indicated that three men entered the store armed with long guns and wearing facial coverings and hoods.
A second camera in the parking lot shows the suspect jump into a dark-colored BMW SUV with at least three accomplices and then drive away.
Four suspects were later found at a hospital. One of the men “was suffering from a gunshot wound consistent with a shotgun blast,” according to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department. The 23-year-old remains hospitalized in critical but stable condition and will be booked into jail after being released, officials said.

Three suspects were taken into custody in the hospital parking lot and were booked for robbery and conspiracy. They are being held on $500,000 bail.
The men were identified as Justin Johnson, 22, of, Inglewood, Jamar Williams, 27, of Los Angeles and Davon Broadus, 24, of Las Vegas.
“In this case, a lawfully armed member of our community prevented a violent crime and ensured their own safety, while being confronted with multiple armed suspects,” the Sheriff’s Department said in a statement.

He was disarmed.
“And that looked like a new BMW, with the dealer’s plate.”
Could have been stolen.
😃😃😃
Of course silly me, should have known it was stolen!!
Are they out on bail yet?
Enhance the charges for illegally parking in a handicapped space: brainlessness is not a qualifying handicap.
Will probably be released with no bail!
He’s screams like a little girl, “He shot my arm off!”, over and over.

They scream real good 😊
The guy was smart to be taken to the hospital.
Lol. Almost left his buddy behind. Come in and get peppered and the bad guy runs off like a bitch. Funny how they all had guns but once he runs out they haul ass. Should have used a slug.
Disappointing.
I was hoping for something to relax and help me go to sleep but when I watched the video, despite the guy's screams and attestations, I clearly saw two arms firmly attached to the guy and was very disappointed.
Otherwise, he's just going to keep robbing people until he kills an innocent person. He's not going to learn a thing, other than to shoot first in the future.
“He sunk my battleship!!”
“He shot my arm off!”
One of the men “was suffering from a gunshot wound consistent with a shotgun blast,”…

His friends call him “Lefty”.
Looked like a slug. That would b a hurt in his arm. might have to take it off. can’t wait for the doc report.
To top it off, the robbers parked in a handicap spot. Actually, maybe now they need it.
