Robber Shoots Woman In Bensonhurst Butcher Shop

2009_12_butchershop.jpg

A crook shot a 50-year-old employee at a Bensonhurst butcher shop in the chest during a brazen stick-up on Friday. The perp entered Romeo Brothers Meats and Foods at the corner of 15th Avenue and 78th Street at around 4:30 pm and "shot her without a word," before grabbing money and fleeing, the Post reports. The woman was found by her husband, who owns the store, which according to NY1 is "a friendly, family-owned Italian landmark." She was rushed to Lutheran Medical Center where she is in stable condition. No arrests have been made.
