It seems that the store owner had just enough time to draw his firearm as the suspect made his way around the counter, temporarily shielding the would-be victim.

The owner fired multiple shots, striking the suspect with at least one bullet.

WVLT-TV has more information on the "armed and dangerous" suspect:

Witnesses say the suspect was driving a silver, older model Dodge Caravan with black rims and plastic in the back window.

He's described as a black man about 5'10" and weighs around 170 pounds. Investigators say he was wearing a black ski mask and a navy blue hoodie with "A E 5" printed on the front.

No one else was hurt during the incident.
