A Georgia convenience store clerk shot a "dirtbag" robbery suspect eight times, ending a wild police chase that started in Florida early Friday morning and concluded in Georgia.
What are the details?
The Flagler County Sheriff's Office said it got a call around 3:30 a.m. about a man who robbed a Circle K gas station store in Palm Coast, demanding all the money in the register — about $90. According to an WXJT-TV video report, the suspect also grabbed items from the store and demanded the clerk give him a pack of cigarettes, add money to the pump so he could fill up his car with gas, and give him quarters so he could add air to his tires.
The sheriff's office said the suspect alluded to having a gun but never brandished it.
Authorities determined the suspect began driving north on Interstate 95, and then St. John’s County Sheriff’s Office deputies spotted the vehicle, officials said.
Once in Georgia, the Camden County Sheriff’s Office took over pursuit of the suspect, officials said, adding that the Kingsland Police Department used a Stop Stick on the vehicle on I-95, after which the car came to a stop, and the suspect fled on foot.
With that, officials said the suspect entered another convenience store, pulled a gun, and demanded the store clerk’s car keys, officials said.
The suspect then took the clerk’s vehicle and started to flee but then crashed the vehicle through the front of the convenience store, officials said.
The suspect then exited the vehicle and chased the clerk and a customer through the store, and then a fight broke out.
The balance of power shifts
The clerk, however, was now armed and shot the suspect approximately eight times, officials said.
The suspect — identified as Qwinntavus Kwame Jordan — was taken into custody and transported to a hospital where he was in critical condition, officials said. At the time of the robbery, Jordan was a fugitive wanted for armed robbery from Coffee County, Georgia, officials said.
Sheriff gives kudos to store clerk
“I commend our Real Time Crime Center team for quickly developing suspect information and his vehicle and thank all the agencies that assisted in apprehending this armed and dangerous fugitive,” said Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly. “I also commend the Georgia store clerk that put a swift end to this dirtbag's crime spree. If he survives his injuries, he should spend a long time in prison.”
