DA: Forest Hill Clerk Killed Man In Self Defense

FOREST HILL (CBS 11 News) ― In the attempted robbery gone wrong, a store clerk turned the tables on two men armed with a Tech-9.

Around closing time on Wednesday night, 21-year-old Michael Walker and 21-year-old Andrew Fobbs went into the Fabulous Urban and Sports Wear with intentions to rob it, say police.

Click here to see the store's surveillance video showing the dramatic standoff between the clerk and Walker.

The suspect and the clerk wrestled for each others guns. That's when the suspect let go of his to reach for the clerk's.

As they both fight for control of the weapon, the clerk shot Walker in the chest and leg. Walker later died at the hospital.

Meantime, the other suspect, made a run for it. But he couldn't get out because the door was locked.

The clerk called 911 and kept him there at gunpoint until police arrived.

The clerk won't face any charges because the District Attorney said it was a clear case of self-defense.
