Police: Bar Owner Shoots, Kills Would-Be Robber

POSTED: Friday, August 18, 2006
UPDATED: 8:14 am CDT August 18, 2006

A bar owner fatally wounded a would-be robber who was armed with a BB gun early Friday.

Bexar County sheriff's deputies said that a 21-year-old man walked into the Old Soldiers Club in the 6200 block of Binz-Englemen Road told at 1 a.m. armed with what appeared to look like a .45 caliber handgun. The weapon, though, actually turned out to be a BB gun.

When the man tried to rob the bar, the bar owner fired a single gunshot wound to the man's chest, killing him at the scene, deputies said.

The man has not been identified.

The bar owner is not expected to face charges since his actions were considered to be self-defense.
