LAKELAND - A clerk was shot this morning by one of two robbers who held up a family convenience store.
The wound to 33-year-old Tanti Berryman was not considered life-threatening, Lakeland police spokesman Jack Gillen said.
Gillen said two armed men entered the Right Fuel Co. store at 1144 E. Memorial Blvd. about 6:30 a.m. After Berryman handed over money, she was shot, Gillen said.
He said she was hit in the shoulder and taken to Lakeland Regional Medical Center.
Police described the robbers as black and in their early 20s. One man wore a light-colored ball cap, a light-blue muscle shirt and blue jeans. The other was wearing a black and white checked ball cap, a dark-blue T-shirt and blue jeans. They were driving a silver car.

Such cowards. I hope when they are identified they try to resist arrest and the cops blow their heads off. That would even be too humane for cockroaches like this.
