Druggist, robbery suspect wounded



A Hickory Hill pharmacist and a man trying to rob his business shot each other Friday evening just minutes before the business was to close for the day, police said.



Rodney Tubbs, owner of The Rx Shoppe, 3701 Riverdale, and the unidentified 20-year old robbery suspect were both in critical condition and in surgery late Friday at the Regional Medical Center at Memphis.



Police were looking for one or more men in a small silver car with Mississippi license plates that several witnesses believed had been casing the parking lot of the Germantown Plaza shopping center, which includes the pharmacy, just before the shootings.
