Default White & Dark Meat: Man in gorilla suit shot while attempting to rob KFC
Man in gorilla suit shot while attempting to rob KFC

RICHMOND, KY - An attempted robbery turned deadly for one central Kentucky man on Saturday. A man disguised in a gorilla costume was trying to rob a KFC restaurant when he was shot to death by a police officer.

Officers were called to a KFC in Richmond on Jan. 22. Employees said the man was dressed like a gorilla and was threatening to kill them. A cashier hiding in the lobby called 911 while the robber pointed his gun at the others.

Employees said the officer asked the man to freeze. In response, he tried to flee. This was when the officer opened fire, fatally wounding the suspect.

"They're like heroes," said Brenda Hale who owned the KFC. "Nobody got hurt in my store and everybody's relieved today it's over with."

Richmond police are not releasing the name of the officer involved. He will be on paid leave while Kentucky State Police investigate the shooting.

You give a shit about a criminal armed robber?

It looks like a good outcome to me no decent person got hurt and the state will not have to pay the cost of 3 hots and a cot for that asshole!

Another one bites the dust!

Oh, I dunno. I was being very much intentionally racist when crafting the headline.

I never said shooting him was a bad thing... only that the comment that "nobody got hurt" was pretty stupid considering that there was somebody dead.

When she said "nobody got hurt"... I think she was talking about the innocent employees and patrons of the store.

When robbing a store with a gun you take the chance of somebody shooting back. Its one of those things you learn in pre-shcool.
