For the second time in two months, the House of Spirits liquor store in Canton was held up at gunpoint. This time, the robber was shot by an employee.

The latest robbery attempt occurred around 7:30 p.m. Saturday at the store, located at the corner of South Patterson Park Avenue and Fleet Street in Canton. Police tape blocked off the store’s entrance, and an employee sought to assure curious patrons and neighbors who visited seeking answers.

He declined to tell a Sun reporter what happened, saying only: “I love my neighbors.” Later, he could be heard telling one neighbor, “Two guys tried to rob us. It didn’t end well for them.”

Police confirmed that a store employee had shot a robber. An off-duty officer heard the shots and helped locate the victim, police said.

A few blocks away, at the southwest corner of Eastern and South Collington avenues, police stood around what appeared to be some of the victim’s belongings. Fresh snow turned red as snow accumulated over blood on the sidewalk.

Police said the victim was seriously wounded and taken to a local hospital for treatment. He was not immediately identified. Police said a gun was recovered.

Police data on OpenBaltimore show the business was robbed at gunpoint on Nov. 13, with police receiving multiple calls for shots fired. Details of that incident weren’t immediately available, but City Councilman Zeke Cohen posted on Facebook at the time that the robbery suspect had fired shots and no one was injured.

I guarantee the police referred to him as a "suspect", but you know...liberal media.

Yeah, the victim shit really pisses me off! That mother fucker isn't a victim of shit. That asshole chose to pickup a gun/knife/bat/ hell you pick; and chose to rob, threaten to rod/kill a real VICTIM! Just so poor everyday "Joe/Jan lunchbox" working his/her ass off getting fucked over by government trying to scrape by a living.

The thug is/was in no way a victim!

Does this make the robbery victims also assailants?

In certain communities and in the opinion of some Persecuting Attorneys....yes.

The article is very short on specifics as to exactly what happened. But you can never assume robbers will just take the money and run. They have been known to kill if the victim doesn't have enough money to suit them, or they don't want to leave any witnesses, or just for the thrill of it.
