Pharmacist Fires Handgun At Would-Be Robber
2012-09-14
(CBS) -- Winslow Township police say a Camden County pharmacist turned the tables on a would-be robber Wednesday. Around 2 p.m., a man allegedly armed with a gun entered Jolin's Pharmacy at 412 Sicklerville Road in Winslow Township and demanded Oxycontin from the pharmacist.

Police say the pharmacist, identified as Dr. John Agyemang, distracted the suspect by telling him there was someone entering the store. While the suspect turned around, Agyemang ran to the back of the store and got his gun, according to police.

The suspect fled the store, with the pharmacist chasing after him. Authorities say Agyemang fired at least five shots at the suspect outside the pharmacy.

#3  That's NJ for you. But Camden just fired its entire police department, so the DA might not be able to justify that.

#1  The pharmacist needs shooting lessons. But, he's in Camden county. He really needs shooting lessons.
