MORE VICTIMS FIGHTING BACK AGAINST WOULD-BE ROBBERS IN PHILADELPHIA, DATA SHOWS

On Wednesday, Police Said An Attempted Robbery Suspect Was Killed By A Customer On Master Street

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- In just the first three months of this year, more people have been shot in defensive shootings in Philadelphia than in each of the last three entire years.

Officials say a male suspect pulled a gun and tried to rob the store on the 1400 block of Master Street around 12:30 p.m.

That's when a customer, who has a license to carry, reportedly shot the suspect twice in the abdomen. The suspect died from his injuries at the hospital.
