Three Days, Three Additions...

Both wizardPC and kirkosaurus sent this one in.

Madison robbery suspect shot, killed
NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) - Metro police have identified the victim and robber of Saturday night's shooting at the Heritage House Apartments parking lot in Madison.
According to police, Javonte Jacquez Johansson, 28, and an accomplice robbed Howard Bridgeforth, 33, of his wallet at gunpoint around 9 p.m. Bridgeforth, who has a handgun carrying permit, pulled out his pistol and fired at Johnson, who died a short distance away, according to police.
Other reports indicate that the goblin - who had a police record for drug possession as well as firearms possession by a felon - had a handgun in his possession. Imagine that. Despite being a prohibited person; despite already being arrested and convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm; he still managed to get his hands on a gun with which to rob people. Yet all the gun control people can say is "just one more law would have stopped this"...

Actually, a lawfully owned and carried defensive arm actually did stop this.

Dead Goblin Count: 304

That is all.

I just want to know if he shot the guy who had his wallet.

No... He shot the guy holding the gun to his head. The accomplice had the wallet. But dropped it after Bridgeforth started shooting.
