Two store clerks killed two armed robbers Saturday night in Reading, Pennsylvania.

The three armed men entered Latino’s Meat Market around 9 p.m. displaying weapons to two employees and a customer. In response the two employees, who police have not identified, pulled out their own weapons and managed to shoot and kill two of the robbers, Raul Nieves-Hernandez and parolee Shaveez Coe, according to ABC affiliate WPVI.

One robber died at the scene, the other died at the Reading Hospital, and the third robber remains on the run and unidentified, according to WFMZ news.

Berks County District Attorney John Adams feels that the shooting is absolutely warranted, telling WPVI, “The use of force in this situation was legal and justified.” (RELATED: Texas Man Solves Burglary Problem By Shooting Robber In The Groin)

According to Adams, when the third robber is caught he will face murder and burglary charges.
