PHILADELPHIA - Weeks after a Philadelphia pizzeria owner and her daughter were shot during an attempted robbery inside the crowded business, the doors are set to reopen.
Authorities say on March 8, 19-year-old Kaleb Bridges entered Mayfair Pizza just before 9 p.m. wearing a mask and hood. According to police, he used a handgun and demanded the cashier, identified as the shop owner's daughter, fill a bag with money from the register.
The owner's daughter was shot once in the shoulder and as her parents and several employees attempted to stop Bridges, her mother was shot once in the abdomen, according to the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office.
Customers inside the pizza shop managed to subdue Bridges and restrain him until the police arrived. He was later taken into custody and charged.
