It's April 30th, welcome to Tampa Bay News today, powered by AI, I'm Corey with the story. A 61-year-old Costco employee in Strong'sville, Ohio was shot and killed outside the store after telling an arm man he couldn't come in. Randolph Corrigan spotted the guy's visible high-capacity drum magazine and confronted him around 5.45 pm on April 25th. The shooter, 22-year-old Christian Bryan from Texas, opened fire with multiple rounds, hitting Corrigan in the chest, abdomen and arm. Bryan paused for just a split second before unloading more shots, even though Corrigan wasn't aggressive. Bystanders jumped in quick, pressing on his wounds and helping until cops arrived. Corrigan was conscious at first, but didn't make it to the hospital. Bryan got nabbed right after and claimed self-defense, saying Corrigan came at him with a knife for no reason. Turns out Corrigan did have a pocket knife, but police say it played no role in the attack. Since his backed up that Bryan was the one escalating things, now Bryan's locked up
on a murder charge with a $5 million bond, set by a judge on Monday. He's a truck driver passing through Ohio with a prior record, but no active probation. The case heads to a Kayahoga County Grand Jury soon for possible extra charges. Corrigan's family is pushing hard for justice and asking any witnesses to step up. A goal fund me for funeral costs has pulled in over $40,000 toward a $55,000 goal. This hits close-door workers, just doing their job shouldn't face this kind of violence.
