BROOKLYN PARK, MINNESOTA — An armed crook’s last decision in life was to rob a man, not knowing that the man was an armed citizen who refused to be a victim.

It happened Monday night while the intended victim was walking down the street. That’s when the suspect, who has not yet been identified, attempted to rob the man at gunpoint.

The two men exchanged gunfire about 8:05 p.m. Monday in the 7500 block of Imperial Drive, police said. Officers arrived at the scene and found the man who was attempting the robbery on the ground.

The person targeted in the robbery has a valid permit to carry a handgun and was not arrested, said Deputy Police Chief Mark Bruley.
