A former Philadelphia police officer shot and killed a knife-wielding man who tried to rob her vitamin store Monday evening, police said.
Police did not release the 46-year-old shopkeeper's name, but online business records identified her as Sharon Doyle, who worked as a police officer in Philadelphia as well as Lower Makefield and Warminster Townships. She also served as a Secret Service agent from 2002 to 2004, according to a resumé posted online.

When police arrived moments later, the suspect was still clutching some cash in his left hand......testing the theory "you can't take it with you".
Good shooting!

He then put the knife to the woman's chest, Small said, and she sprang into action. She drew a gun and fired a shot into the man's chest, Small said. The man collapsed on the floor. Now that is bravery in action. Bravo to this woman.
