Tennessee store clerk charged in death of teen believed to be shoplifting beer, report says

Police in Tennessee said Sunday that a convenience store clerk has been charged in the fatal shooting of a suspected shoplifter whose body was found near the store.

The Commercial Appeal reports Memphis police charged 28-year-old Anwar Ghazali with first-degree murder.

The shooting occurred on Thursday, but police said Ghazali never reported the incident. The 17-year-old's body was found beside a home near the store Saturday. Fox 13 Memphis identified the victim as Dorian Harris.

Police spokesman Louis Brownlee said the teen was suspected of leaving the store without paying for a beer, and Ghazali followed him and allegedly shot him.

"The victim/suspect stole a beer and goes out of the store,'' Brownlee told the paper. "The suspect tries to stop him. Shoots at him. Hits him once. He doesn't officially know that he hit him. Yesterday, a female comes home, sees a person lying next to the home. Calls police.”

This is not murder. This is eradication of a nuisance species. Like a rat, mouse or roach.

7:10 so shoplifting should carry the death penalty? Sounds like sharia law to me. Careful what you preach.

Good, stopped him before he graduated into more server crimes. Exterminate these vermin before they ruin this world.

This thief was well onto a full life of crime, this is his learning field. As he got older it would have been robbing old ladies, beating up old men, raping girls, armed robbery, maybe even Murdering a good family.
Store guy did the world a big favor.

No offense but you must be new here. People make these types of comments, and worse, every day on any kind of post.

If this thug was allowed to get away with stealing a beer today, tomorrow it would be the cash register, than a bank, and later a gas station, liquor store, and then killing people.
This should be done around here, would make or little city so much safer place to live.
