Behind the curve
A would be armed robber was shot and killed by a security guard as he attempted to rob The Vitamin Shoppe in New Smyrna Florida on February 7, 2007. The masked pistol wielding robber entered the pharmacy, threw a bag over the counter and demanded it be filled with drugs. As the robber threatened the pharmacists and security guard with his pistol and frantically paced in front of the counter the security guard behind the counter discretely unholstered his weapon and calmly waited for the right time to strike. The robber soon was momentarily distracted as he reached for a box of drugs that he had demanded. The security guard quickly came around the counter and shot the robber twice in the chest. The robber had less than a second to respond and was shot dead without returning fire.
