Gunfire broke out at a Fairmount gas station, killing one person and injuring a private security guard. The shootout took place at a Sunoco gas station on the 900 block of College Avenue, about 7 p.m. Tuesday evening, according to officials.

The armed guard, a 30-year-old man, was on duty inside the store when an armed man, 39, walked into the location with a gun. Deputy Commissioner Frank Vanore says the suspect confronted the guard after an altercation about the location of a parked barbecue truck.

The security guard, licensed to carry and employed by Pennsylvania State Agency, a security company working with the gas station, was shot in the leg. He was taken to Temple University Hospital and listed as stable.

The 39-year-old man was shot multiple times in the face and in the legs. He died at the hospital.

In the gunfire exchange, one bullet made its way across the street, hitting a second-floor bedroom window. Officials said no one was injured in the home. No charges have been filed in connection to this incident.

security really wanted him dead with those shotgun shots

WTF was the security using to do the shooting, a BB gun? All those shots fired at the guy and the MFer is still alive and talking.

Seems like he wasn't really willing to use the gun he pulled out.

Luckily, the security guard had no such silly qualms

I think the guard had some kind of failure on his firearm, probably from bad positioning, leading to him having to rerack every shot.

Edit: better video came out, looks like the guard may have actually managed to grab a different weapon at some point. Sorry to those I may have misled. Edit edit upon further further review, he did have a shotgun on his person, so he probably switched instead of doing a pistol reload. I'm dumb, sorry.

Ridiculous overkill, but totally justified. I loved how the perp, lying on the ground bleeding, said "Really?".

think the shooting went on after the vid ended Hope the barbecue truck was okay.

I'm a big proponent of the 'shoot them as many times as you can' approach to self defence.
