The men allegedly tried to steal several items from a farm equipment store in England. They also fired two shots at one of the employees. Gene Kinsey, the parts manager the robbers shot at, caught the men in action.
He dodged the bullets unharmed. The business itself, however, needed a little more help to return to normal. Two trashed offices, several broken computers and a cash register area doused in gasoline. That's what Kinsey walked into after almost losing his life outside.
"That's where he fired twice at me," Kinsey said of the shooter. "I closed my door, rammed it in reverse and took off backwards."
Kinsey walked on to the property around 5:40 Friday morning for work. He says he found the front gate broken.
"And I noticed a bob truck and three forklifts out by the road which they aren't supposed to be there," Kinsey said.
