A Dallas convenience store clerk is facing murder charges after shooting at two thieves who tried to steal beer from a 7-11; and one of the men he shot died.

As the Star-Telegram reports, 7-11 gas station clerk 23-year-old Delon Johnson called police on Wednesday night to say he had shot at two men who were stealing beer from the store. According to the report, the two men allegedly stole four cases of beer from inside the store and Johnson said he followed them into the parking lot, demanding they return the items.

When the men did not cooperate, Johnson allegedly fired at them. It is unclear if the weapon belonged to Johnson or the store.
