Suspect in store robbery shot by clerk
An attempt to rob a convenience store went awry Friday night when the store clerk pulled out his own gun and shot one of the suspects in the chest in an exchange of gunfire, police said.
The suspect, a man in his 20s, remained in critical condition Saturday.
The clerk was standing in front of JR Market on National Avenue at 38th Street at 10 p.m. when he was approached by two men armed with a handgun, San Diego police said.
When they pointed the gun at him, the clerk pulled out his own handgun and they exchanged fire.
The suspects escaped in a gray mini-van.
About 20 minutes later, a woman called to report that a man had been shot.
Officers who responded found a man lying in a van on 30th Street suffering from a gunshot wound to the chest.
No other suspects were found.
