South Philly Gun Shop Owner Shoots, Kills Looter, Police Say
A South Philadelphia gun shop owner shot and killed a man trying to break into his store early Tuesday morning amid heightened looting concerns.

[...]

The group then smashed in the back door, police said. When they made it upstairs the owner started shooting and shot one man in the head.

That man died in the store, police said. The other men ran off. Police found a gun that the owner said does not belong to his shop at the scene, so they think someone brought that with them.

Am I the only one here who starts thinking of the Fresh Prince theme song every time I hear South Philadelphia?

As far as the shoot, good

Agreed, but I think the metal they will be looking to give him is in bars.
