Desmond Caught a Bullet in the Marketplace

File this one under "Must-See TV":

The Franklin County sheriff's department says Desmond Thompson walked into a Sunoco station on Cleveland Avenue around 7:30 Sunday morning, and told the clerk he had a gun while demanding cash.

The cashier gave him the money, but pulled a gun and shot Thompson when he told her to step out from behind the counter.


Here's the surprise ending...

Detective McEvoy said Thompson has a previous criminal record in Michigan.


UPDATE: NBC4 out of Columbus has more:

(Store clerk, Karen) Smith told Hollingsworth that she had never fired a gun before in her life.


Good shot, Karen! Here's a shot of this nice young man flailing around on the floor while considering a career change.

Now squeal like a pig, bitch!
