An attempted armed robbery at a Terry Road
convenience store ended in an exchange of gunfire Thursday night, with the
store's clerk shot in the hand and the suspect critically wounded in the chest,
a police official said.
Around 8:30 p.m., the unidentified suspect
entered the Shell station at 1801 Terry Road, said Jackson police spokesman
Robert Graham.
The Shell is located just off the North Terry
Road exit of I-20. The closest open business Thursday night was a fast-food
restaurant two blocks away.
"The individual came into the store,
produced a .380-caliber weapon and announced the robbery," Graham said.
"Detectives are trying to determine who shot first."
The suspect was transported to Central
Mississippi Medical Center, Graham said.
Stanley Good, 59, of Florence, the clerk, was
taken to Baptist Medical Center. The wound to his right hand was not
life-threatening, Graham said.
The investigation is ongoing.
There was another robbery in the same area
Thursday night.
Two men robbed Martin Cleaners and Laundry at
1055 Raymond Road at 1 p.m., Graham said.
"No one was injured," Graham said.
"No gun was displayed but they made mention of it."
An undetermined amount of money was taken,
Graham said.
