 When an armed robber entered a dollar general store in Monroe, Louisiana, an employee shot and killed the man, according to the police. He has been charged with manslaughter. On Monday, an armed robbery occurred at the Dollar General in downtown Monroe, where Refuse Anderson was working, according to the police report. According to the police, Anderson fired a shot at the robber, striking both him and a customer as they tried to escape. Officers who arrived on the scene reported finding the robber laying in the money he had just robbed the store of to the north of the establishment. The wound ultimately proved fatal, and he passed away some time afterwards. A representative from Dollar General did not comment right away. It was reported that Anderson surrendered to police after closing the store. He informed police that this was the sixth armed robbery attempt at the store since August, four of which had been successful, and that he was terrified the robber would kill him. Anderson was freed from jail on no bail on Tuesday and is due in court on Wednesday. Both the establishment's proximity to low-income areas and their reliance on cash made them prime targets for armed robberies, according to a 2020 investigation by the New Yorker and ProPublica. In a lot of these regions, they're the only stores around, Vijay Bethel, a reporter with the local NBC affiliate in Dayton, Ohio, told the outlets at the time. He further said, it's the only location to get cash for criminals. According to statistics collected and compiled by the Gun Violence Archive, there were more than 85 shootings that are near establishments having the word dollar in the name that year.
