A Starbucks barista who worked inside the grocery store where 10 people were gunned down by a suspect Monday said he saw it as his duty to protect his 69-year-old coworker by hiding her underneath trashcans when the gunman entered the store, according to a report.
"I knew since she is my elder, as she is older than me, I must protect her over myself and so, instinctively, I pushed her into a corner, covered her with trash cans and then tried to find a place for myself," Smith said. He said he hid in a trash can – at taller than 6 feet his head was visible – and waited as the gunman stood just feet from the counter then made his way through the store.More Related News
