A Queens barbershop owner is in critical condition after being shot in an attempted armed robbery Friday night. As one robber entered Rah's Barber Shop in the Jamaica section of Queens and was confronted by its owner, a second man emerged from the back and shot the proprietor in the chest. The victim's name was only given as Raheem by a friend. Once he was shot, a group of up to five people wrestled the attackers down to the ground as two children (including Raheem's son) were rushed to safety in the back. Raheem is being attended to at Mary Immaculate Hospital.
