Springfield, Missouri

From the October 15, 2006 Springfield [Missouri] News-Leader:
A suspect in the Friday night armed robbery of a north-side liquor store is in police custody and is recovering from a gunshot wound at a local hospital, Lt. Scott Levin of the Springfield Police Department said.

Gregory R. Medley, 29, has been charged with robbery, assault and armed criminal action, Levin said. He will be transferred to the Greene County Jail when he is dismissed from the hospital. His bail was set at $250,000.

Police say the suspect entered the liquor store about 9 p.m. Friday, displayed a handgun and demanded money.

Levin said Medley was likely shot in the arm by the owner of Springfield Discount Liquor, 1423 E. Kearney St., during the robbery. The clerk told police the suspect fired first.
