AIKEN, S.C. (AP) - Authorities say a man trying to rob a couple who thought they were going to buy a car off Craigslist has been shot and killed.
Aiken County deputies said in a news release that officers are looking for the second robber after he ran away following the shooting Wednesday afternoon.
Investigators say the would-be robbers pulled out a gun and demanded money when they met the couple at an Aiken gas station where they planned to buy a car listed on the Internet site.
Deputies say while the gun was pointed at the man, his girlfriend pulled her own weapon and shot at the robbers.

The females of the species are very protective.
Fortunately we are meeting him at the best possible time!!!
No doubt he was an aspiring rapper also.
LOL
I’m going to print this out and show it to Mrs. Patriot.
Well that’s what I thought, but I wanted him to confirm that was what he was referencing.
“Then he made the fatal mistake of watching her boyfriend, figuring that he was the one who would act. He had no idea if one or the other or both of them were armed.”
Just more proof that these folks are generally not out of a gene pool that is very bright.
Guess he didn't see the movie, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly:
"When you have to shoot, shoot, don't talk".
old classic about a gunfighter.
that’s what i was thinking lol
great scene great movie
Were the witnesses thrown in jail for profiling in zerO’s America??
Aspiring rapper, gentle giant, heading off to college to become a doctor.
I've sold many low cost items on Craigs from my house and have always carried my S&W 38 special concealed.........
The items I've sold aren't conducive to people who would attempt to rob me but I took the proper precautions anyway............
With that being said, are you interested in a 3 piece, 9' bamboo fly rod with an extra tip?
Another POS Obama-son in hell.
Wonder if the turd thinks it was all worth it now?
(Holding hands in air) “Sure, sure, pal, take it easy. (Turns to girl) give him his money, hon...
Not surprised.
I doubt he is thinking about much, except perhaps, where the heck (change that word for the answer to his question) am I?
Nope, usually is an Amish hood.
I sold an expensive Carl Zeiss binocular using one of the freebee papers. The couple who bought it lived in Montgomery, Alabama. Since I was in the Florida Panhandle, I offered to meet them half way.
They insisted on driving down so I said OK and gave them my address. Just before they came they phoned and asked if I could still meet them half way.
It was maybe a year later that it struck me that they were savvy and wanted to check me out before meeting. That is why they wanted my physical address.
They were avid birders and knew their stuff and knew they were getting a good deal.
