Wounded Robber At Shock Trauma

Baltimore County Police tell us a robbery turned into a gun battle last night. Around 7:00PM Sunday, two men entered the Mars Supermarket on Maiden Choce Ln. in Arbutus. While one stood in the front serving as a lookout, the other went to the back of the store and demanded money from a customer service representative.

The stores armed security guard observed the pair. When they tried exiting the store, he confronted them. While fleeing, the lookout pulled out a gun and started shooting at the guard. The guard returned fire hitting wounding the suspect.

After exiting the store the men jumped into a car and continued to shoot at the guard. The guard again returned fire.

Several hours later Baltimore County Police discovered the car near Wilton Farm Road with the suspect nearby. The suspect was arrested and is currently being treated at Shock Trauma for gunshot wounds suffered during the robbery.
