The bar had just closed, and while his wife stood in the tavern’s doorway, lilly went out to start their car and warm it up. Suddenly a man appeared, shot lilly, and began rifling through his pockets. The robber then broke out one of the vehicle’s windows before reaching inside to steal a six-pack of beer.
