A man reported that he was withdrawing money at a drive-through ATM when he was approached by another man on foot who was also with another person inside a sedan, Police Chief Bill McManus said.
“He saw an individual coming toward him whom he thought was going to rob him, and another individual in the car,” the chief said at a news conference. “He fired and hit both of them. Both are deceased. … That’s what we know right now.” McManus did not identify the robbery victim or suspects except to say that they appeared to be in their 20s. It was not immediately clear if either of the robbery suspects were armed., in which thieves watch and follow would-be victims to determine the best time to steal their money.
“There’s no continuing danger to anyone in the area,” McManus said. “It was a robbery that didn’t go well for the robbers, and we are interviewing the person they attempted to rob right now as we speak.”Latest trending news:
