[shadowrider]

A shotgun-wielding owner of a Harlem restaurant-supply company blasted two robbers to death and wounded two others on Thursday when he caught them pistol-whipping his employee, police said.

Turning the tables on the brutish bandits, 72-year-old Charles (Gus) Augusto opened fire with a 12-gauge shotgun he kept handy for such occasions, cops and witnesses said.

Minor critique: It also helps, if you post something like this, to explain why you are posting it. Are you supportive of the store owner? Do you think he's a muderer? Does it affect the price of spareribs in Tucson?
