Moments later he turned the handgun on himself, firing one round to the right side of his head, police said. The clerk made a call on his cellphone and began arguing with someone on the line. The victim ran to a tire store next door and was picked up by his ex-girlfriend in a van.
“Once the physical fight was broken up,” the clerk pulled a handgun from his pocket and fired three rounds at the victim, striking him once in the shoulder, the report said. The customer became upset, advanced toward the clerk and “a struggle quickly ensued.” The clerk followed him outside and started recording him with his cellphone camera. The clerk refused to serve the man, who then walked outside with the chips without paying. Police say the clerk yelled at the the customer to put on a mask or leave the store, but he refused and placed three bags of chips on the counter. The Associated Press obtained a redacted copy of the police report through a public records request. KLAS-TV first reported on the incident Thursday.
