A daring act of self-defense unfolded in Norco, California, when a liquor store owner turned the tables on armed robbers. In the early hours of the morning, four masked suspects, armed with long guns, stormed into the store with intentions to rob it.

Surveillance footage captured the tense moments as one of the suspects demanded the owner to raise his hands. Unbeknownst to the assailants, the store owner was armed and ready to defend himself. In a swift and courageous move, the owner retrieved his own rifle and fired back at the intruders.

The tables quickly turned as chaos ensued. The wounded suspect, clutching his injured arm, fled back to their vehicle while shouting in distress. In the confusion, the getaway driver attempted to leave, inadvertently abandoning one of their own. The stranded suspect managed to scramble into the vehicle before it sped away from the scene.

Authorities later discovered the four suspects seeking medical attention at a hospital. One of them exhibited injuries consistent with a shotgun blast, indicating the effectiveness of the store owner’s defense. Moreover, investigations revealed that the stolen vehicle used in the robbery, along with several weapons found inside, further implicated the suspects in criminal activities.

The suspects, identified as Justin Johnson (22), Jamar Williams (27), and Devon Broadus (24), now face serious charges in connection with the attempted robbery. However, the name of the wounded suspect has not been disclosed by officials.

As this gripping story continues to unfold, it serves as a reminder of the risks faced by business owners and the importance of preparedness in the face of danger.
