once again the anti self defense misconception that if you would only comply with the criminals you wouldn’t get hurt so bad is proven to be just that…… BULLS^&%!

Clerk Killed After Giving Robber Cash
Friday, September 7, 2001

A convenience store clerk was shot and killed Thursday night after he complied with a robber’s demands, police said.
At about 7:20 p.m., a man entered the Sunshine Food Mart, at 1845 S. 700 East, Salt Lake City, brandished a handgun and demanded money.
The clerk, identified only as a male, opened the register and gave the robber an undisclosed amount of money, said Salt Lake police Sgt. Fred Louis. The robber then shot the clerk.
“It’s a brutal crime,” Louis said. “The clerk complied. He didn’t show any resistance.”
It appeared as though the clerk suffered a single gunshot wound to the upper torso, Louis said.
The victim was found about 15 minutes later by a customer at the store.
Police reported a surveillance tape recorded the entire incident.
The business is family owned, but Louis was unsure if the clerk were a member of the family.
Police described the gunman as a male, about 5-feet 7-inches tall. He fled the scene of foot.
