Good Samaritan shoots robber who shot store owner

A good guy with a gun helped stop a bad guy with a gun … Friday afternoon, according to the Aurora Police Department. A shooting at the Village East Grocery Store in the area of East Mississippi Avenue and South Peoria Street led police to the crime scene at around 2:09 p.m., where they found a woman [the grocery store owner] suffering from a gunshot wound in the parking lot of the grocery store…. The woman was taken to a hospital where she currently remains in serious, but stable condition….

Officers determined that a Good Samaritan confronted the robbery suspect outside of the grocery store and shot him. The suspect then fled the area. James Sagere, who works at the barber shop next to the grocery store, said the Good Samaritan is a fellow barber in the shop who wanted to help their friend next door…. Sagere said the Good Samaritan barber has a concealed carry license.

A short time later, officers found a man suffering from a gunshot wound in the area of South Joliet Street and East Garden Drive…. The man was taken into custody and taken to a local hospital for treatment.
