PHILADELPHIA - Gunfire broke out at a Fairmount gas station, killing one person and injuring a private security guard.The shootout took place at a Sunoco gas station on the 900 block of College Avenue, about 7 p.m. Tuesday evening, according to officials.
The armed guard, a 30-year-old man, was on duty inside the store when an armed man, 39, walked into the location with a gun.

In the gunfire exchange, one bullet made its way across the street, hitting a second-floor bedroom window. Officials said no one was injured in the home.

Telling Americans that guns cause school shootings is like calling someone's child ugly. It's the truth but they can't handle it being told to their face.
