San Antonio, Texas

From the San Antonio Express-News of December 15, 2006
Store clerk fights back

The clerk was undeterred by the masked assailant he spotted in his store’s surveillance camera. Grabbing his own gun, the 37-year-old met him outside, and the two fired shots at each other.

“It’s like the old West again,” a detective said.

Police made the shooting on the 1000 block of Culebra Road minutes later, at around 10 p.m.

The clerk was shot in the leg and taken to an unknown hospital in good condition.

The assailant, however, fled. Police don’t have a good description of his get-away car. But some vindication remained from the ordeal: He also left penniless.
