One report is the man waited outside the store, and shot the robbers who were (allegedly) ski-masked and armed as they left.
Another report says he was going into the store and shot them more or less going by him or something.
Another report says 'the gunman was arrested', meaning the carrier who shot the burglars.
I have to say, I would not want anyone to see a burglary in progress, hide outside the store and shoot the BGs as they came out. Though tactically sound, it's a very bad move, since they were a) fleeing, and b) not threatening the ambusher.
I hope he kept his mouth shut and didn't say anything to the cops, because he's likely to get second degree, if not vol. Man 1.
IANAL.

Oh and by tactically sound, it doesn't really take into account the backdrop, missing and shooting a car driving by or a pedestrian. It does use the element of surprise very well, though, I suppose.
