One big question was who shot first -- the customer with a license to carry or the would-be robber?
Police say when the offender came in the store and pulled out a gun, the customer shot at him. It was then that police say the would-be robber fired back, hitting and killing the clerk.
Family of 64-year-old Ali Hassan shared a photo of the man beloved by the community he and his two younger brothers served."This strange right here. I'm hurt right here because that's my guy," said Lindsay Ellis, a longtime South Shore resident. "We just got out of the store at 6:30. They close at 7," said Ellis."As soon as I got in the house, sit on the couch, heard the pop, pop, pop, pop."
Longtime South Shore resident Mallory Jones was not at all surprised that an armed customer tried to protect Hassan by shooting the robber. Jones said Hassan ran the business with such respect and compassion for the community, he became like family to many.
