Market employees shoot and kill masked robbers in Reading
READING, Pa. - Police are investigating a late night robbery and double shooting at the Latino's Meat Market in Reading.
According to Reading police, officers were dispatched to the market - located at 11th and Greenwich streets - shortly before 11 p.m. Saturday for the report of a shooting.
When police arrived on scene, they found two males suffering from gunshot wounds. Police say one male died at the scene and the other male died a short time later at Reading Hospital.
Reading police say it looks as though three masked males entered the market. One male was armed with a pistol, which he fired inside the market, and another male could be seen pointing a stun gun at one of the employees. Police do not know if the third male was armed.

        It's getting harder to tell where the anti-gun ends and the pro-criminal begins.

        The 3rd gunman will be charged with 2 counts of murder. The store clerks will not be charged. They should be given a medal.
