The store's owner, Roger Hardy, says he chased the suspect and fired two shots at him as he ran.

Everything started just around 2 o'clock Thursday afternoon. Hardy says a man with his head and face covered came inside and showed his gun. Three other customers were in the store at the time.

"He told me to get on the floor and give him the money and I thought it was a joke and it took me a couple of seconds," Hardy says. "He kept repeating that, using vulgarity. Then he come behind the counter and hit me with the gun as I was getting down on the floor

Afterwards, he called 9-1-1 and then followed the suspect with a gun of his own, firing two shots at the getaway truck.

"I picked up my gun too, I don't want to shoot nobody, but I walked up beside their truck and I couldn't stop the truck. So, I just shot the window out of the truck then as they passed my store, I shot again."

Police then fanned out across the the west end of Clarksburg. Eventually, the alleged getaway truck was located at the old Anchor Hoching plant. There they took a woman into custody. She's belived to have been in the getaway truck.

For witnesses who live near the antique store, this was quite a surprise.

"I heard two gunshots. The first one I wasn't sure, I thought it was a car backfiring," says Marcel Fontaine. "The second one I knew it was a gunshot. This is the little town of Clarksburg, I mean you know you just never know."

Clarksburg Police got help from the Harrison County Sheriff Department, Brigdeport Police and the West Virginia State Police. They brought in K-9 units as well as the Special Response Unit and a helicopter.
