Burglars Get Into Gunfight With Business Owner

 

CHARLOTTE, N.C. —

Charlotte-Mecklenburg police searched for two men Monday morning who broke into a business and got into a gunfight with its owner.

Police said the men broke into Big Rob's Sports Bar on Nevin Road in north Charlotte around 3 a.m. Monday. The burglars tripped the burglar alarm, which alerted police and the bar's owner.

The owner went to the bar and saw the men loading electronics into the back of a truck. When the burglars saw the owner, one burglar shot at him. The owner shot back and the burglars got away.

The owner was not hurt. Police did not release a description of the burglars.
