Man shot, killed during burglary attempt at South Philadelphia gun store, police say
PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Police said one person is dead following a shooting during a burglary attempt inside a South Philadelphia gun store early Tuesday.

It happened around 4:20 a.m. on the 1500 block of South Front Street in the Pennsport section of the city.

Police were called to the Firing Line Gun Range and Gun Store.
The video on FoxNews this morning showed the damage that was done to the store's steel rear door the previous night which caused the store owner to stay over night the next night.
The burglars arrived with bolt cutters to cut the padlock on the gate to the store's parking lot fence gate.
The then tried to enter the store through the main entrance and was met by the armed owner.
The leading goblin was armed and was DRT.
It's possible that a second goblin was wounded as the nearest hospital shortly after the event reported a gun shot victim in their ER.

Hopefully the prosecutor won't charge the gun store owner and accuse him of "lying in wait" as some prosecutor once did to another gun shop owner who was doing his own security once. :(
