Wyoming robber with toy gun shot by pharmacist with real one
A would-be robber in Wyoming may have thought it was a clever idea to try and rob a local pharmacy using a fake gun, but the situation turned extremely real when the pharmacist behind the counter pulled out a gun of his own.
The pharmacist, who remains unidentified, shot the man once in the chest and injured him, according to the Wyoming Tribune Eagle.
The entire incident unfolded over the weekend, when the unnamed suspected robber walked into Medicap Pharmacy in Cheyenne, Wyoming at around 9:45 in the morning. Once inside, the man allegedly demanded that the pharmacist hand over narcotics while “brandishing” a toy gun that looked alarmingly real.
“The pharmacist then pulled out a firearm – a handgun, a revolver – and shot the suspect once in the chest,” said Cheyenne Police Department Chief Brian Kozak to the Eagle Tribune.
