Guard shoots man in store robbery
A security guard shot the alleged would-be robber of a grocery store Sunday night, Irvine police said.
Police would not identify the two men, but Officer Brian Brooks said the wounded man was taken to University of Kentucky Hospital for treatment.
Brooks responded to a call at 7:17 p.m. Sunday at Priceless Foods, 1012 Winchester Road in Irvine. Upon entering, he found a man, armed with a small-caliber revolver, slumped over the cash register. The man, in his 20s, then fell to the floor.
The guard had shot the man with a .357 Magnum, Brooks said.
