Two armed robbers, one armed clerk. He did well.

He underwent life-saving surgeries and is scheduled for further procedures, officials said.
Why bother?

“One robber, 30-year-old Rodney Green...”
Common Amish name, right?

Well, a semi happy ending.
The busy corner store often stays one late at night..
Hard to imagine it becoming something else.

Another example of superb gun control—the clerk hit precisely where he was aiming.
John Adams said, “We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
Yep. The government (police) were not available to the clerk at the time he needed them to bridle the immorality of the two robbers. Fortunately, our Constitution provided him with the means to deal with it himself. It is called the Second Amendment. Isn’t it amazing how much more intelligent our Founding Fathers were than the current crop in Congress.

The other man fled on foot and is being sought this morning. Police didn't immediately release a description of the man. Be on the look-out for a man. He is considered armed and dangerous.

The police are looking for the other assailant. He is described as 6 foot 2 inches tall wearing plain black clothes with a straw hat and is wearing a beard.

The getaway vehicle was described as a black buggy, powered by one horse, last seen clippety clopping toward open farmland.
Should pick up the perps in no time flat...

I did my student teaching in a Lancaster High School and Jr High School during 1976. I wish I had a gun everyday.

“One robber, 30-year-old Rodney Green, was shot in the chest and is receiving treatment at area hospitals, according to officials.”
1) Clerk, should have let him bleed-out before calling 911.
2) Clerk, needs more range time or bigger-gr HPs.
3) Clerk: GOOD SHOOTING, ANYWAY!
