Jeweler Kills Gunman in His Store

The owner of a Beverly Hills jewelry store who shot and killed an intruder
Thursday told police the man was holding a gun to his head when he reached for
his own and fired repeatedly.
Police responded about 1:30 p.m. to reports of gunshots at Mirage Jewelers on
9469 Little Santa Monica Blvd., said Beverly Hills Police Lt. Gary Gilmond.
Officers entered the store and found the body just inside the entrance and the
owner standing behind a counter, police said. Police said the owner told them
that the man had drawn a gun from his waistband and led him around the otherwise
empty store. At one point, the gunman pointed his weapon at the owner's head,
the jeweler told police. The owner "drew his own handgun" and "fired on the
suspect multiple times, striking him on the upper torso," Gilmond said. Police
did not identify either man.
The result of a police investigation will be submitted to district attorney
prosecutors for review.
