Two men are dead after they allegedly assaulted and tried to rob a store clerk in Gates County, North Carolina Tuesday night.
According to the clerk, the two men held him up at gunpoint and demanded money, before striking him to the floor and proceeding to kick him repeatedly.
Authorities said he was so badly beaten that he actually had the imprint of a boot on his chest at the end of the night.
The men were seemingly unaware that the clerk had a gun of his own in the store, and according to News Channel 3, he managed to grab it and shoot one of the suspects in a behind-the-back shot. After that men fled, he shot the other as well.
Watch the full story, below:
Police found one of the bodies near the store, and the other roughly a quarter mile down the road.
At this point, authorities speculate there may have been a “getaway man” involved, who simply drove away when he saw all that had happened.
The store clerk was hospitalized for significant bruising on his head, chest, and back, but has already been released and was able to give a statement to police that enabled them to fully begin the investigation.
Authorities say they are looking in to whether the suspects are related to a string of other robberies in the area, though reports have not yet detailed the suspects’ descriptions.
UPDATE:
Via WAVY:
The Gates County Sheriff’s Office has confirmed the identities of two suspects involved in a store shooting.
Officials say brothers Quinten Felton and Eddie Felton were shot and killed after an attempted robbery at Joppa Road Store located at the intersection of Acorn Hill Road and Hinton Road in North Carolina around 6 p.m. Tuesday.
[...]
Eddie graduated Perquimans County High School in 2010, and Quinten was supposed to graduate this year. The school confirms that Eddie was a varsity football player and was ranked third in the state for basketball .
“He was an all around good student,” said principal Chante Lassiter, who remembers Eddie. “Very liked by his peers and teachers here in the community.”
Quinten was a senior honor-roll student at Perquimans County High School.
[...]
Funeral home obituaries list Quinten as 17 years old and Eddie as 20 years old.
The suspects’ cousin, Sandra Felton, concluded: “I know it was a terrible thing on the other part,” in reference to the attack on the clerk, “But still, we cannot forget that we have lost two lives, no matter what.”

They are two brothers ages 17 & 20 and are both black. The store clerk was referred to as “ahhman” (I’m spelling it how it sounded as they only said it and did not show it or him).

Posted on May 23, 2012 at 11:44pmRegardless the race and especially if all white. The media, in particular the likes of BSNBC will blame the deaths on the store clerk/owner since he is likely an upstanding citizen, and those thugs should have been left alive so they can be rehabilitated. Regardless, it will be blamed on the true victim.

Posted on May 24, 2012 at 12:23amIsnt it just wonderful that when the blaze cuts & pastes their stories, they go back and delete important information, such as the identities of the people involved, is the blaze trying to be PC instead of actually reporting all the facts ?
the “”“alleged””" robbers were black,,(go figure) and the store owners name is Amman, no mention of race, but that is relevant as he was using his 2nd amendment rights to bear arms, and protect himself and his property. God Bless him !
It didnt take much time or effort to find out these pieces of information, so why do the so called ““ reporters ”” at the blaze find it so difficult ?
and another question not pertaining to this, why is everything always alleged ? if there is video, audio, police reports, etc. etc. etc. that says something was done,,, its not alleged any more !!
if there are no witnesses, but only suspicion, then you can call it alleged !
STOP using the word ALLEGED in every story,, grow a pair ! and call it like it is !

Posted on May 24, 2012 at 2:05amYou are learning well 3monkeys. You can bet hate crime charges will be filed by our Bolshevik government. If the police don’t file, the Dept of Justice will for “civil rights violations.” Isn’t it ironic that the white people that created this government and elected this government then got turned on by the very government they elected? This clerk’s job, as a white person, was to do nothing but sit there and take the beating/killing. The clerk‘s crime in the government’s eyes? Being white. Simple as that. Since he defended himself, you can bet someone is going to file hate crime charges against him. Trevon Martin is another example. That Zimmerman defended himself, so he is automatically guilty of a hate crime since the perp was black. That’s why the government wants to ban self defense statutes in many states-so whites can be arrested for self defense. Our government and our media has been hijacked by Bolsheviks. Just take a look at this analysis:

The shooter appears to have a middle eastern name, and would most likely be Muslim.
What a spot to be in for the media. They love to defend the Muslims, and we know you can not shoot violent black criminals, and not be declared guilty by the media.

It is pretty sick that a couple of teens with guns think they can stroll into a store and hold people at gunpoint. And then, when someone does something about it, a jury of asinine idiots picked not at random, but cherry picked for the prosecution and judge, can convict him of murder in the first degree. Usually reserved for a serial killer or a premeditated and thought out murder, first degree murder was the conviction for a man involved with saving the life of himself and several employees of the store in an act that lasted about 30 seconds.

Posted on May 24, 2012 at 9:51am@ Thecoffinmaker, Do you really think that illegal immigrants picking fruit and performing day labor are taking all the jobs from the blacks? Seriously, you must be a freaking ******. Liberal policies like a minimum wage and all of this new healthcare B.S. are making it harder for ANYONE without a skilled craft to break into the market place. And should I mention all of the jobs that require a college degree, any degree, in order to get. Now, anyone with half a brain should be able to see that requiring a bachelors degree to teach elementary school is a waste of time and merely serves as a tool to restrict the job market to those whose parents can afford to put them through 4 years of college. It isn’t like it used to be. Classes are scheduled all hours of the day and you almost cannot even work yourself through college anymore unless you take 8 years to do so.

When the Hussain White House first heard about the man named George Zimmerman shooting a black they used the BLACK PHONE to alert black organizations around the nation to activate for a national outcry of anger and begin marching. The tour bus contracts were activated and thousands of blacks were loaded up and sent speeding to Sanford, Florida. Things were already set in motion by the White House before they realized George Zimmerman was a Mexican HISPANIC. It was too late to recall the buses and stop the demonstrations.

Posted on May 25, 2012 at 5:09pmThere is a lot of denial and knee jerk reaction in these comments.
Self Defense does not give you the right to kill someone. It does give you the right to stop an attack. For deadly force to be justified the attack must be capable of inflicting serious bodily harm or death. If, as a result of the force reasonably necessary to stop the attack, the attacker dies – that is sad, but justified. Once the attack stops the justification ends and the force has to stop.
The elements of self defense are a reasonable belief that through no fault of the victim:
1) The attacker has the then present intent to inflict serious bodily harm or death.
2) The attacker has the then existing means to inflict that harm.
3) The attacker has the then existing opportunity to inflict the harm.
Here all of the elements seem to be present. If the investigation supports that finding then a finding of justifiable homicide by reason of self defense is required. I think this clerk is in good standing if his story holds up.
In Oklahoma the pharmacist was justified in shooting the kid the first time. His problem came when he returned and shot an unconscious person lying on the floor of the store. The attack had stopped. There was no justification for the second shooting.
If you are going to be armed, you better know the law. Even then an odoriferous brown substance may hit the fan. Zimmerman proved that.

While the Liberal MSM just saw it as just another crime, in the Arab world it was a HUGE and showed black people in a bad light.

The clerk acted in self defense and should be fully acquitted of any charges. When the Sheriff’s Office digs deeper, they might find these subjects were involved in other crimes or gang activity.
It’s too bad for the family of these two brothers but THEY made the decision to commit robbery and beat the store clerk. I hope that it will be a lesson for anyone else contemplating such activities, toe public is becoming more and more aware of the need for self protection.

Posted on May 24, 2012 at 3:09pmIt won’t be for long if Obama has his way! The Obama Administration is working RIGHT NOW to get rid of the 2nd Amendment as proving that ONLY law enforcement can have guns.
Mark my words….if Obama wins in November, you can kiss your guns goodbye! I have buried mine, all 300 of them (be great to barter with later on) along with 6l rounds of ammo. My husband taught me well.

Posted on May 24, 2012 at 9:45amWould simply be too funny…Zimmerman is innocent of all charges and will prove so in court. He is threatened with “Civil” action once the criminal case is done. If I were Zimmerman, I’d take a page from OJ, never own anything myself, go to civil court without an attorney unless one represented me pro bono and let them figure out how to collect anything. I live in Florida and Zimmerman will never have a problem working here, or doing anything he wants from a recreational standpoint…The WHITE community loves him…and we will protect him if necessary.

Posted on May 24, 2012 at 4:19pmYes they were Democrats, but they had ran out of food stamps and this called for desperate measures. No one who hasn’t been there, knows what it’s like to have to sit on your front porch, without a 40 oozier in a brown paper bag. The neighbors walk and drive by and laugh at your demise and the next thing you know you’re robbing a convenience store and then you inadvertently drop your guard. Then they announce you and Brother’s funeral will be next Tuesday.
Every now and then the good get lucky…
