Chicago would-be robbery victim flips script on suspect, draws firearm

A would-be robber in Chicago was fatally shot after two men he targeted turned the tables on him Saturday afternoon, authorities said.

The 32-year-old suspect began talking with two other 32-year-old men who were walking back to their vehicle from a store on the 1500 block of East 95th Street around 3:45 p.m., Chicago police said.

As the victims entered their gray 2012 Volkswagen SUV, the suspect followed them, got into the backseat, pulled out a handgun and announced a robbery, according to authorities.
