A Redwood City man died after he was shot while allegedly trying to rob a gun store in central Livermore on Sunday afternoon.

The owner of East Bay Firearms, who fired the two rounds that ultimately proved fatal, is not considered to be a suspect in a crime at this point as investigators have initially categorized the shooting as an apparent act of self-defense, according to the Livermore Police Department.

Confirming details for the first time late Monday morning, police said the call came in around 2:30 p.m. Sunday about a report of a robbery at the gun store on First Street.

Police said when officers arrived they found a 28-year-old Redwood City man suffering from a gunshot wound. Officers and paramedics attempted life-saving measures, but the man died from his injuries at the scene. His name has not been released publicly yet, with family notification still pending.

The subsequent investigation preliminarily revealed that the Redwood City man entered the gun store acting suspiciously while wearing a mask, gloves and a hooded sweatshirt over his head, according to police.

"According to witness statements, he then attempted to rob the gun store by taking a firearm while armed with a hammer. The gun store owner fired two rounds fatally wounding the man," police said.

The gun store owner, whose name has not been confirmed publicly, has been cooperating with the investigation by the department's criminal investigations unit, according to police. "At this stage in the investigation, it appears that this was a case of self-defense," police added.

Would somebody please notify the Darwin Award committee?

Police said their investigation revealed that a 28-year-old man from Redwood City entered East Bay Firearms in the 4000 block of First Street around 2:30 p.m.

The burglar was wearing a mask, gloves, and a hooded sweatshirt pulled over his head.

He was reportedly “acting suspicious.”

Witnesses told police that the crook then tried to rob the gun store by taking a firearm while armed with a hammer.

The gun store owner responded by firing two rounds, fatally wounding the man, police said.

Police arrived at the scene to find the man suffering from a gunshot.

Along with paramedics, they performed lifesaving measures.

However, the man was pronounced dead at the scene.

Trying to rob a gun store with a hammer?

@Tenpoundbass Where did you find that video? I guess it has to be from @Kelvin_linares on Instagram, since there's nothing on his Twitter feed.

I have to say I laughed when I saw that they immediately got stuck in traffic when attempting to leave.

It was posted on Gab. I found it ironic that nobody panicked even after they returned to their car, and fired off another volley of bullets in that direction.

Perhaps it did start with the guy initially trying to rob them or jack their car. That's why people didn't panic, they were witnessing Justice being doled out, and not an attack or an assault.

In a confluence of gun-control and local news, this headline popped up in my feed yesterday: Gainesville man shot by homeowner defending himself, his children.




A “Gainesville man” was locked up in the Putnam County Jail on Wednesday. Back in June, Semaj Atkins, 21, knocked on someone’s door, and when the homeowner answered, Atkins pulled a gun on him. The alert and apparently quiet spry homeowner darted inside while Atkins fired into the house. The defiant homeowner snatched up his own gun and returned fire, protecting himself and his children, who were home.

Pro tip: practice your shooting before you invade somebody’s home in Florida. We shoot back. Between the two, the homeowner had much better aim than Atkins. The failed home invader was injured, and fled the scene in a very cowardly manner.

A short time later, Atkins was stopped by Putnam County Sheriff’s deputies while driving away, bleeding from a gunshot wound to the chest. Apparently Atkins informed police that the homeowner started it. It took until this month for ballistics to come back proving the homeowner’s side of the story.

Buh bye!

How can ballistics prove who shot first?

This is becoming a common theme. Perhaps thugs should stop thinking of middle class white families as defenseless victims.

The video captured by KABC shows the father walking to the front door while grabbing for his keys. Then, two intruders jump at the gate.

One intruder races up to the front door. The homeowner then tosses his tea at him, pulls out his gun, and starts shooting at both suspects.

The two masked thugs split as one fires back at the homeowner. The father then follows one suspect, who hops over the side fence, while the other hops over the front gate and runs away.

Fucking scary man. Good job Dad but, I bet he never turns his back or lacks awareness again. Please don't confuse my comment as being judgemental. He did a great job but he definitely could have ended up d.e.a.d. The thugs had the drop on him but wussed out.

Needs a normal fence, not that gay hipster knee-high contraption.

Middle class with careers have to worry about losing everything in court and even jail time. The "law" is more concerning than the thug.

In that guy's case even tiny gay half-fence is better than no fence, because this is all is needed to make his yard not "publicly-accessible space". So at least he got that going for him.

He's being sentenced to prison because he chased armed robbers and then shot them.

He should be given public honors and a large cash reward instead.

That's a zero fucks given guy. Every time criminal is shot dead there should be a reward given, this guy saved taxpayers millions over criminals lifespan.

Kinetic energy: E = mv^2.

The vehicle is hitting the thug at below 10 mph. Try this at 40 MPH and you get thug bouillabaisse.
