On Saturday evening, a man wearing a mask walked into a South Side Chicago bodega, pulled out a gun and announced a robbery. As the alleged robber pointed his gun at the store’s employees, however, a customer pulled out his own gun. The robber’s gun, it turns out, was fake. The customer’s was not. Now the robbery suspect is dead, gunned down by the concealed-weapon-toting customer.

Something doesn’t seem right,” said Igbinosa Oronsaye, whose mother married Gildersleeve three years ago. “He didn’t deserve to get shot multiple times.”

Oronsaye suggested Gildersleeve could have been apprehended without being killed, and appeared to call for charges against the shooter with the concealed weapon. “Some people don’t actually know how to use guns,” he told the Tribune. “They go to firing ranges, but it’s not the same as a bullet going into someone’s body, it’s not the same as a bullet going into flesh. They should be able to wound first, kill next. He didn’t deserve to get shot multiple times. “You just took a brother, you just took a father from a lot of people. Somebody’s got to answer for that.”
