According to police, 23-year-old Robert Christopher Young entered the convenience store, brandished a handgun and demanded money from the two clerks, brothers Sophia and Sopea Pich. Gunfire was exchanged between Young and Sopea Pich.

Young ran out of the store and was found a couple of blocks away. He later died at Carolinas Medical Center. The two store clerks who were there at the time were not injured during the shootout.

Monroe Police Chief Debra Duncan says that akthough she does not expect Pich to be charged with anything, that decision is now in the hands of the District Attorney.

Edit to fix link.

1. Murder up 366% in Monroe in three years - and the population dropped

Must be all those guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens!

7. You have an odd definition of "gun porn".
