ATLANTA - Police
say an armed man trying to rob customers outside an Atlanta shoe
store was fatally shot by one of the patrons waiting in line to buy
sneakers.
WSB-TV reports the shooting
happened Saturday morning in the city's Little Five Points
neighborhood, where people lined up outside Wish Clothing to buy new
$180 sneakers endorsed by Miami Heat star LeBron James.
Witnesses
told police a man armed with a gun tried to rob people standing
outside the store. But one of the customers drew his own handgun and
shot the robber. Police say the suspect ran just a few yards before he
fell dead.
Atlanta police officer John Chafee says the shooter won't be charged because investigators determined he fired in self-defense. More w/video here:
