Robbery Suspect and Armed Victim Both Shot After Struggle Over Gun in Missouri Market

According to First Alert 4, the incident occurred around 5:30 p.m. at a market on the 5200 block of Hamilton Avenue. The victim was standing at the counter when 23-year-old Tayvion Baker allegedly approached him armed with a pistol. Police say Baker spotted a handgun in a holster on the victim’s hip, which was reportedly concealed under his shirt. It is unclear how Baker noticed the firearm, but he then attempted to take it. Baker reportedly grabbed the firearm and threatened the victim, saying, “give it to me, I’m finnin to pop you.” A violent struggle ensued, during which Baker shot the victim twice. The victim returned fire, striking Baker. After being shot, Baker fled the store, but the victim pursued him outside and continued shooting as the suspect attempted to escape. Both men were later transported to a local hospital for treatment. Their current conditions have not been released. Police later discovered that Baker’s firearm had been modified with an illegal switch, converting it to full auto. Baker now faces multiple charges including two counts of armed criminal action, attempted robbery, assault, and unlawful possession and modification of a firearm. This case highlights two critical considerations for concealed carriers. First, proper concealment is essential. If a firearm is visible or easily identified under clothing, it may draw the attention of criminals and escalate a situation, as appeared to happen here. Second, the use of deadly force must stop once the immediate threat has ended. Pursuing and continuing to shoot at a fleeing suspect can have serious legal consequences. Always prioritize de-escalation and adhere strictly to self-defense laws. Read the full article here
