Tulsa Police identified the convenience store clerk shot and killed at the S&K Food Mart April 28, 2017. Aftab Ahmed, 51, was shot and killed as he worked behind the counter of S&K Food Mart Friday evening.
Sergeant Dave Walker said they were called to the store after another customer saw a man with a handgun robbing it. As the customer left, he told police he heard several shots being fired.
Police were able to identify a suspect vehicle after looking at surveillance video. They saw the shooter get into a 1999 Ford Expedition, Walker said in a news release. They believe he and another man then went to Bakery La Sonrisa and robbed that store as well.
