One of the shop owners recounted that they initially circled the establishment before ultimately noticing a man emerging from the premises. Upon confronting the suspect, tensions escalated quickly. The couple reported that the individual became aggressive, prompting one of the owners to pull a firearm and shoot the man in the stomach to defend themselves.
Aftermath and Community Response

This incident occurred in the wake of heightened vigilance from the shop owners, who had already been on alert following an earlier break-in that had resulted in the theft of copper wiring.
