Multiple suspects attempted to rob a jewelry store Wednesday afternoon in Milpitas but were possibly thwarted by a business owner with a gun, according to police.
Just before 1:30 p.m., officers responded to a call about a smash-and-grab robbery at a jewelry store by the Seafood City Supermarket near the 1530 block of Landess Avenue.
According to police, between 10 and 15 suspected rushed into the business; at the time, only the business owner and an employee were present. The business owner shot a gun, but no injuries have been reported. Nothing was stolen. The suspects fled the scene before officers arrived.

I wonder who or what wrote the article.
That’s what I’m talking about “DIY” safety and security. It’s the new RAT third world Amerika.
Local leaders and political groups rallied in front of Fine Jewelry in Milpitas, calling on Governor Newsom to fund Prop 36, which they believe would make it easier to prosecute thieves. Organizers say San Jose is experiencing a crime wave, and there is a lot of unreported crime throughout the Bay Area that needs to be factored in. The family who owns the Milpitas store did not want to be interviewed but old the Milpitas mayor they were robbed about two years ago in the same way. They plan to reopen the store soon. Police are still searching for the suspects involved in the Milpitas robbery attempt, and no injuries were reported.

Local TV journalism.
Junior College journalism dropouts.
You rarely see a local TV news report that is written correctly and makes sense.
I am surprised they didn’t charge the owner with something. Maybe thugs out three are turning around.
A business owner could be anyone who owns a business. They did narrow it down later. A gun. Whose gun? I always read these kinds of things with a jaundiced eye, because it actually requires more effort to write so poorly.
The business owner needs a shot guns something will make contact.
With the trouble they were having getting through the glass storefront, I suspect it was bulletproof security glass, which means the owner's shots wouldn't have made it out, either.
When the owner opens a can of 9mm Raid, the roaches scatter.
A slug ammo will bulletproof security glass has limits.
