These “just desserts” stories may be more lighthearted fun when someone simply gets beat up and humiliated, but I can’t feel bad for armed robbers killed in the act. Retired Marine is top gun at sub shop:
The Subway video surveillance cameras, which the owner had installed only a week ago — ”just to be on the safe side” — caught the whole drama.The robbers got Lovell’s money. But Lovell, who neighbors and friends say is in tiptop shape and looks years younger than he really is, pulled out his handgun and shot both in the head.
Donicio Arrindell, 22, of North Lauderdale died. Fredrick Gadson, 21, of Fort Lauderdale, was critically wounded.
The front window was blown out and cash strewn around the shop.
”There were fives and rolls of coins everywhere,” said Detective Robert Rettig of the Plantation Police Department.
Rettig said Lovell, who has a permit to carry a concealed weapon, is not expected to be charged. ”He was in fear for his life,” Rettig said.
Here’s an odd legal twist:
Gadson, listed Thursday night in serious condition, faces armed robbery charges. And because someone was killed during the crime, he also will be charged with murder, authorities said.
