"The guy was berserk," Harper told the News. "He was screaming his guts out."

Entering the store, Harper fired three times at the gunman, who dropped his shotgun but didn't fall.

"He ran toward me and I shot him twice more," said Harper. "After five he fell down. But then he got up again."

The wounded man, still hollering, crawled to the back of the store and died, witnesses told the News.

Five hits to put him down? ... and then he got up again? This guy did a great thing, and was indeed a hero. But I would suggest he get a bigger bore gun. I use a .44 Magnum.

I'd be curious to know what caliber the good guy was shooting. Marshall and Sanow need to add this one to their OSS stats!

Actually "screaming his head off" would to me indicate that he was high as a kite on something - crack, heroin, meth, who knows? Probably didn't know he'd even been hit until he fell. Certainly must have been feeling no pain.
