Robbery Victim Kills Suspect



A robbery suspect dies from a gunshot wound after attempting to take money from a 61-year old man.



It happened last night in the 1100 block of North Hawthorne Street.



Earl McIntrye who runs a candy shop out of his home says he got jumped by four men who tried stealing his money.



That's when McIntyre reached for his handgun shooting one of the suspects, "I was there serving a boy and I got his stuff for him and went back to give it to him and he had taken it. And they said, "Get him! Get him!" So they rushed in and knocked me down."



McIntyre says the three other suspects got away.



He will not be charged with any crime.
