This afternoon in San Ignacio town there was a dramatic shootout between cops and robbers, and it left two men dead. They are 22 year old Ronnie Garcia and Jose Garcia.
According to police, the men were involved in an armed robbery of Rose's Store - which is a Chinese grocery and restaurant - where they got off with a little over 380 dollars. Police responded and cordoned off the area, which is near Chuc's service station in San Ignacio town. But according to reports, it was an off duty officer who responded and shot the two men.
Police say there was a shootout, and at the end of it, both of the suspects were shot in the head. Police recovered a sawed off shotgun form one of them and the other had a bag with money. They both wore masks.
Police are looking for other accomplices who may have escaped in a getaway car. We'll have more on this story tomorrow.
