SHREWSBURY, Pa. — Pennsylvania State Police said a trooper shot and wounded a man armed with a shotgun at a Walmart.

State police received a call Thursday night from the Walmart in Shrewsbury, saying the store about 40 miles south of Harrisburg had been robbed.

A trooper who was in the area responded and spotted the suspect as he was leaving the store.

Authorities said the trooper told the man to drop the shotgun. That’s when the man raised his weapon. State police said the trooper pushed the shotgun barrel away. The man fired, and simultaneously, the trooper shot.

State police say it appears the man was trying to rob the pharmacy.
