Police say a man narrowly avoided being shot during a robbery Sunday in the parking lot of a Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market in Little Rock's Riverdale neighborhood.
Authorities were called to the grocery store at 2510 Cantrell Road around 8:20 p.m., where they spoke with the victim, a 40-year-old Little Rock resident, who was in the back seat of an ambulance according to a report.
The man told police that two unknown black males entered the front and rear passenger doors of his black 2012 Chrysler 300, with one pointing a black semi-automatic handgun at his right leg and telling him to drive.
When he refused, the robber in the front passenger seat fired one shot that missed his leg and pierced a hole in his sweatpants, according to authorities.
The victim said that robber then pistol-whipped him and the other punched him before he was able to get away and run inside the Wal-Mart.
They took at least $20, the police report states.
At that point, the robbers fled the scene in a black Dodge Charger, according to the report. Physical descriptions were not available.
