Wow this store has a bad reputation for people getting shot. I used to stop there when I was in the area but stopped going there because too many people hang out in front of the store. Maybe they need security on the premises. Definitely would not want to work there. It’s not safe.
I work in law enforcement in a different county but I’m hearing the dude who was shot was attempting to rob the place again. Just repeating what I’m hearing on our end.
Yup I heard the same thing
.it is sad.
