BELLINGHAM, Wash. — A man tried to steal guns from Yeager’s Sporting Goods and was shot by an employee.
General Manager Justin Simpson says the suspect entered the store just after 12 noon and tried to smash the display case and grab guns.
He jumped over the display and was shot by an employee who has a concealed weapon permit.
The suspect was injured and transported the hospital.
He and another man may have been involved in a robbery earlier in the day at the Meridian Haggen store.
We’re working to get details on that incident.
