NORTH PHILADELPHIA - September 5, 2011 (WPVI) -- A Temple University student is expected to recover after exchanging gunfire with a would-be robber in North Philadelphia.

The shattered glass on the front door testifies to the shootout near 12th and Dauphin early Monday morning.

21-year-old Rob Eells, a Temple University junior from Doylestown, fought back during a holdup attempt. His girlfriend, who doesn't want to be identified, says Rob and his roommate were having a smoke on the front stoop around 1:45 this morning.
