The bad guy walked in with his gun out. The camera angle makes the child look closer than it really is, he was at least 3 feet away from the toddler. He used the coworker for cover to draw only, the coworker knew this and expected him to do this.

He fired 3 shots, all 3 hit. 1 was a through and through, which he has remedied by using a lower grain load now. This is someone I'd like having around to watch my back.

I say again, the bad guy already had his gun out, there is no telling whether he would have shot all 4 AFTER he got the money or not.
As an aside, the clerk/shooter is an NRA certified CCW instructor. After the shooting, the mother of the toddler signed up for one of his courses and obtained a CCW.
This was an incident that happened in OCT of 05 in ohio. The 'perp' was a college student just about ready to graduate, it was his first conviction ever, and now he's sitting in prison for 9 years.
