MEMPHIS, TN (2-minute read) — A robbery attempt at Twin Food Mart in Memphis early Tuesday morning ended with one suspect shot and two men fleeing the scene, police confirmed.According to authorities, the incident occurred just after 3:35 a.m. at the store located at 766 Jackson Avenue. The business owner reported that two men entered his store, one brandishing a black handgun and the other moving around behind the counter.
The situation escalated quickly. The suspect with the firearm confronted the owner directly while the second suspect entered the employee area through a side counter door. The store owner, who was armed, drew his firearm and ordered the men to leave.
Rather than retreat, one of the suspects attacked the owner, pushing him to the ground and striking him in the head. The suspect then attempted to disarm the store owner during the struggle.
Fighting back, the owner managed to fire his handgun, striking the suspect. Both suspects immediately fled the scene, even though one of them had been hit. As of now, the suspects are still at large and Memphis Police are continuing their investigation.

Nice.
I wonder if KoB can afford a crate of those? Perfect for defending that North Wall
Yes and Yes!👏
AOC confused. Believes they were only trying to feed their families, as one perp yelled “Gimme the bread, man” while a second suspect reportedly said “hand me all your dough.” Clerk, also confused, believed they said “gimme dat lead,” and proceeded to do so.
That is the problem with our edumacation these days. People can’t communicate in a language that everyone understands!
No, non, nyet, are easily translated…
And as they were running out of the store the wounded guy was probably screaming; “I NEED A AMBALANZ!!”
“I need a muthafuckin’ bambulance!”
if he could speak english, he could have said, “put a rush on the bus”.
See above comment and take a number.
The perps should have tried to hit a bakery and throw some yeast into the dough so they could get a larger amount of dough re me. 13 packs and you get a bakers dozen.
While most of the gun review is relatively accurate, saying the 9×18 muzzle velocity is 315 miles per second? 1.5 million feet per second? Uh, no… maybe “meters per second”, and even that is an overstatement.
Buuuuut… does it have S P? Stopping Power?
