A tragic incident occurred at a 7-Eleven store in Aurora on Saturday night, leaving one man dead. According to the Aurora Police Department, the 36-year-old victim approached the 38-year-old security guard from behind and aimed a gun at his head. In a split second, the situation escalated into a fight over the weapon, and in an act of self-defense, the security guard pulled out his own gun and fired a single shot at the attacker.

Despite the quick response of the police officers who arrived at the store, the victim succumbed to his injuries at the hospital.

The incident has sparked discussions about gun control and self-defense laws, with some arguing that stricter measures need to be put in place to prevent similar tragedies from happening. However, for now, our thoughts and prayers go out to the victim's family and friends, as well as to the security guard who will have to live with the weight of this incident on his shoulders.

In the midst of all the chaos and tragedy, it is important to remember the importance of staying safe and vigilant, especially in public places.
