2021-07-09 |
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A gas station clerk followed a shoplifter outside a convenience store and gas station, and shot him in the parking lot, according to court documents. Vincent Bibbs, 49, has been charged with the murder of 49-year-old Damon McClain. Officers with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department were dispatched to the Speedway gas station at 4960 E. 56th St. just before 11:30 p.m. June 29. Officers arrived to find McClain in a vehicle. He had been shot in the head. He was declared deceased on the scene at 11:35 p.m. Witnesses told police they saw the clerk, identified as Bibbs, follow a man carrying a bag outside of the store to the parking lot. IMPD detectives say surveillance video shows McClain placing several cases of Red Bull into a plastic trash bag before leaving through the front door. Bibbs can be seen following McClain outside. In an interview with police, Bibbs initially denied having any interaction with McClain, according to court documents. Detectives say Bibbs told them he never shot anyone, had a gun or heard shots. |

#9 But bleeding merchants dry is ok? Theft is violence. How many times had this guy been reported and nothing doing? |

#7 "It gives you wings" Marketing Snark of the Day! I'm guessing this was not the deceased's first adventure with shoplifting at the store. |

#5 The store's loss prevention program is little harsh but has a 0% recidivism rate. |

#4 Unfortunately, I have to agree with the charge of murder. The victim, at that point, did not represent a threat to the clerk. If he had to shoot, he could have shot out the victim's tires, and let the police handle it. |

#2 Bibbs told them he never shot anyone, had a gun or heard shots. This is a possibility during this summer of national urban vibrancy. Gunpowder residue testing would clarify this. |
