Montgomery Man is shot during attempted robbery at Citgo covenience store

Police are searching for a teenager who shot a man working at a car wash late Friday. This all went down at the Citgo gas station on South Court Street. 46-year-old Curtis Waits told police he was shot twice as a young man attempted to rob him of the money he was collecting from the automated machine. Waits fired back, but the shooter got away by running into the woods across the street. Police combed the area along West South Boulevard with k-9 units for several hours but didn't track the shooter down. The victim, Curtis Waits, is in surgery at Baptist Hospital.
