RICHMOND, Va. -- Police are investigating a robbery that ended in gunfire on Tuesday night.
It happened at the B & S Food Mart in the 3600 block of E Broad Rock Rd.
Around 10:30 p.m., the suspect entered the store and fired a single gunshot, striking the clerk in the chest-shoulder area. The suspect then ran from the scene with money.
The clerk was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Customers of the convenience store say they were shocked to learn of the shooting.
“I come here every week day morning,” said Nicole Goode.
