Gas Station Clerk Shot Over Declined Debit Card

Real life O-Dog?

You ever been so broke that you needed to shoot somebody? Evidently this St. Louis woman has.

This past Tuesday, a unidentified woman walked into a gas station to make a purchase. When she tried to pay with her card, it came back declined. Instead of trying it again, calling her bank or simply admitting that she didn't have the money, she decided to start an argument with the store clerk.

That argument turned into her calling her boyfriend into the store and telling him to shoot the clerk. He did, right in the abdomen.

Police still don't know who did it, but they describe him as being a black man, standing about 6'4 with a thin build and dreadlocks. He had on a white T-shirt, white hooded sweatshirt and blue jeans. Sounds like a lot of black men in St. Louis are about to be profiled this weekend.

The gas station owner admits that he gets crazy customers from time to time, but this is the first time that any of his employees have been shot.
