Robbed and Shot “In” Gun Store

This is a tricky story, their headline was:

MAN SHOT, ROBBED IN GUN SHOP

Yet when you read the article, it clearly states the the patron had his firearm stolen when he was outside.

A GUNMAN made off with six guns after a robbery and shooting at a Far Northeast gun shop last night, police said.The armed man shot a 67-year-old patron in the groin and stole his firearms outside Delaware Valley Sports Center, on Geiger Road near Gantry in Bustleton, about 8:30 p.m., according to information from police.

The bandit – whom police radio reports indicated may have had a female accomplice – also robbed two people outside the shop, possibly stealing firearms from them as well, police said. In all, the man is believed to have stolen six guns before fleeing.

The man who was shot in the store was in critical condition at Aria Health’s Torresdale hospital, police said.

Shortly after 9 p.m., officers had a car believed to be connected to the robbery and shooting stopped in the area of Schuylkill Avenue and Christian Street in South Philadelphia. Its occupants – a male driver and a female passenger – were questioned by investigators and later released after a witness from the initial robbery told police the two didn’t match the descriptions of the robbers.- Staff Report

So how did he stole his firearms outside the Delaware Valley Sports Center? Did he shoot the guy in the groin, then told him to come outside, then robbed him of his firearms? That doesn’t make sense.

Was the gun store open? Where their employees? I’ve been to Shooter’s Depot, every employee there open carries so I don’t know how exactly you would shoot someone and not get three other guys shooting you back.

  1. Mr. Smith:
    My boyfriend and his shooting buddy were the ones who were robbed outside of Delaware valley sports center on June 12th, 2014! His shooting buddy is recovered from the surgeries for the damage caused by the bullet! The trial starts on August 8th at 8 am at the philly criminal justice center! A friend was doing some research on the case and has found out that the stolen guns are in the possession of a terrorist organization of young African American gentlemen!

    • I’m sorry that happened to y’all, I’m confused about one thing. Were there two robberies? One inside, one outside? Because the headline from the source link implied the robbery took place outside.

      I hope your buddy fully recovers.
