“I just seen him five minutes ago,” Polly said. “He came down here a few minutes ago to check on me because I’ve been going through some depression stuff. He just kept telling me to, ‘Be careful. Be careful.’ Just giving me words of encouragement.”

According to police, a 911 call reported several gunshots. Officer found the victim shot once in the head outside of the store witnesses say he operated.

Friends and loved ones gathered outside the store in disbelief.
