The family members of a robbery suspect that held a store employee at gunpoint in Alabama are lashing out at the Good Samaritan who shot him and stopped the robbery.<\/p>\n
Adric White, 18, was shot five times after he allegedly tried to hold up a Family Dollar store in Mobile on Nov. 12.<\/p>\n
FOX10 spoke exclusively to both the unnamed Good Samaritan and the family members of White. They’re livid that their son was shot while pointing a gun in someone’s face.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf [the customer’s] life was not in danger, if no one had a gun up to him, if no one pointed a gun at him – what gives him the right to think that it’s okay to just shoot someone?\u201d a relative, who wished to remain anonymous, told FOX10. \u201cYou should have just left the store and went wherever you had to go in your car or whatever.\u201d<\/p>\n
But when the suspect pulled out a gun at about 5:30 p.m., the Good Samaritan did too.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe had the gun to his head. He had him on his knees,\u201d said the Good Samaritan, who wished to remain anonymous. \u201cI drew my gun on him and I said ‘Hey don’t move.’ At that point he swung around and before he had a chance to aim the gun at me I fired. I didn\u2019t want to shoot him.\u201d
