That employee then fired back, striking and injuring the suspect, who left the store after the shots were fired.<\/p>\n<p>Community members provided aid to the employee, using their belts as a tourniquet, before police arrived. He was transported to Harborview Medical Center to be treated for multiple non-life-threatening gunshot wounds.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>1 \/ 0 \/ 0<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kiro7.com\/news\/local\/suspect-killed-employee-injured-after-shots-fired-during-robbery-attempt-ballard\/Z3DDNUHQDFAABI5FAYC7WDF47I\/\">KIRO 7<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Really poor victim selection skills.

The officer tried to intervene. At one point, the officer tries to tell them that it was &#8220;OK&#8221; and to &#8220;calm down.&#8221; Three of them walked away, but Leevon M. Smith, 39, stayed behind.<\/p>\n<p>The two were speaking, and as the officer turned to walk away, Smith allegedly grabbed her from behind and grabbed her gun to try and disarm her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ll kill you, I&#8217;ll kill you,&#8221; the officer warned Smith. She was trying to wrestle herself free from Smith&#8217;s grip, and they both fell to the ground.<\/p>\n<p>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<\/p>\n<p>Smith&#8217;s family filed a lawsuit against Chicago and the officer for $10 million.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u2018I\u2019ll kill you,\u2019 off-duty cop yells before fatally shooting man who tried to grab her gun\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/et2Akz3BkrQ\" width=\"510\" height=\"510\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>1 \/ 0 \/ 0<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/video-shows-off-duty-chicago-cop-deadly-shooting-assailant-i-told-you-id-shoot-you\">Fox News<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Armed suspect shot dead by police at Holiday Inn Express motel, Elk Grove PD says<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Michael McGough<br \/>\nPolice shot and killed an armed suspect Tuesday night at an Elk Grove motel, authorities said.<\/p>\n<p>One officer opened fire at a male suspect shortly after 11:30 p.m. at the Holiday Inn Express at 9175 West Stockton Blvd., the Elk Grove Police Department said in social media posts.<\/p>\n<p>The suspect was taken to a hospital, where he died of his injuries, police said.
