Aiken, SC
It takes a special kind of man to put on a dress. It takes a lot of balls for a man to put on a dress, walk in to a jewelry store, and then pull out a gun and demand money.
That's exactly what 20 year old Domenique Fortenberry did. He pointed a gun at the store owner and demanded money. The store owner, Mr. Bradberry, pulled out a gun of his own. They then shot each other. In fact, several shots were exchanged.
Wounded in the face, the suspect fled the store, discarding his disguise (or was it?) in the process. Police were called and K-9 units searched the area, following the trail of blood. The suspect was later apprehended after he had been taken to the hospital where he is being treated for his gunshot wound. He is under guard and once released, he will be charged with several felonies.
The store owner's son, Keith Bradberry, states his father was treated and released from the hospital for a minor wound to his arm. He cites his father as a hero, knowing full well that if he hadn't shot the suspect, they would both probably be dead.
The store owner will not be charged as he was lawfully defending himself during the commission of a dangerous felony.
Sorry the store owner took a hit, and not so sorry that Domenique Dingleberry there is still walking.
UPDATE: A female accomplice was later arrested in relation to this case. She was driving the getaway vehicle and drove Fortenberry to the hospital.
