Store owner shoots man who fired at him first
A store owner shot and wounded a would-be robber who fired at him
outside the shop in northwest Houston on Monday, police said. Dalton
Francis, 17, first shot at Yong Do Cho through his car window at Gessner
and Clay shortly after noon, police said, then chased Cho’s car into a
parking lot in the 5600 block of Gessner.
There Francis shot at the shop owner, Fabern Dale Cossey, who wounded
him, police said. Francis and Flenzy Ray Jones, 33, of Houston ran but
were arrested in the 10000 block of Tanner, police spokesman Alvin
Wright said.
Jones was charged with aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon, police
said, and Francis will be similarly charged when he leaves Ben Taub
Hospital, where he was in fair condition.
