Hampton recruit shot and killed during robbery attempt
Baltimore, MD (Sports Network) - Hampton University football signee Derrick Breedlove was shot and killed Wednesday after a failed robbery attempt at a liquor store blocks from his high school.
Breedlove, a 6-2, 251-pound defensive tackle from Baltimore's Dundalk High School, entered Modern Discount Liquors Wednesday morning armed with a pellet gun and was shot by a clerk after taking a bag of cash.
Police said they were questioning another Dundalk student last night who might have been waiting outside the store in a getaway car. Police found the vehicle in the parking lot at Dundalk High and towed it away as part of the investigation.
"When I got the call, I thought it must be a mistake, it has to be a mistake," said Kim Stephanic, the school's principal. "Derrick was supposed to be in his first-period class and instead he was robbing a liquor store. I can't understand it."
According to Baltimore County police, Breedlove walked into the store shortly after 9 a.m., displayed the pellet gun and demanded money from a clerk behind the counter. A second clerk, Richard Kosinski, 50, who lives near the store, was in a back room and witnessed the robbery, she said.
Kosinski retrieved a handgun, walked out a side door and re-entered through the front door, Warehime said. He confronted Breedlove and shot him twice in the upper body.
Breedlove, who was pronounced dead at the scene, did not fire any shots.
