Omaha police have made one arrest in connection with a robbery Monday night at a Benson Walgreens in which one person was killed.
The suspect is identified as 17 year old Angelo Douglas of 3716 N. 24th. Police records indicate he was arrested for robbery and use of a weapon to commit a felony.
The shooting happened just before 9pm at the Walgreen's at 61st and NW Radial Highway.
In an update late Tuesday morning here is how Omaha police lay out events leading up to the shooting:
Investigators believe that two masked suspects entered the Walgreen’s, one armed with a short shotgun. The armed suspect had leveled the gun at customers.
One of the customers at the register saw the suspect point the short shotgun in the direction of the register where there were several others standing.
This customer, who has a valid permit to carry a gun, drew a handgun from the waistband of his pants and discharged it at the suspect with the shotgun. The man was hit multiple times.
The wounded suspect was able to flee from the store but collapsed on the north side of the business. He was transported to the Creighton University Medical Center where he died.
The name of that person has not been released.
The name of the citizen who shot the robber has not been released.
The customer who discharged his firearm, shooting the suspect with the gun, was interviewed and released after detectives conferred with the Douglas County Attorney.
The Douglas County Attorney will also be forwarded copies of all of the reports so as to make a determination of any other charges that may be filed.
