Police in Philadelphia are investigating after one man was killed and another was hospitalized after an alleged robbery turned into a gunfight.
The Philadelphia Police Department responded to reports of a person with a gun Tuesday night and found a 32-year-old FedEx driver suffering from a gunshot wound to his abdomen "during a robbery," according to a statement provided to USA TODAY. They also found a 27-year-old man who was shot multiple times and later died.
WCAU-TV in Philadelphia reported an armed man stole the keys and wallet of the FedEx driver and shot him. The FedEx driver then returned fire, according to the station, and was able to drive away from the scene and to the grocery store where he was found.
Police found the driver's FedEx ID card when they located the alleged suspect, according to WCAU
When asked if FedEx drivers are permitted to carry weapons during their shifts, the spokesman reiterated the company's commitment to the safety of its employees and added, "As such, we do not publicly disclose details relating to our security policies."
