A Dutch Bros. Coffee drive-through employee turned the tables on a would-be robber Wednesday night, fatally shooting the male assailant who died in the doorway of the stand at 2115 Franklin Blvd., according to the Eugene Police Department.
One onlooker, who was passing by immediately after the 9 p.m. shooting, said the gunshot victim was struck in the chest.
Police were still searching for a second suspect, who is described by police as a white male, 20 to 30 years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall, with blond hair, and last seen wearing jeans, brown hiking shoes with black bottoms and a zip-up puffy coat with a fold-down collar.
Police are withholding the names of the employee and deceased man until further investigation and next-of-kin notification. No other information was released Wednesday night.
The shooting was the second incident at the coffee stand in the past two months. On Sept. 19, a man was Tasered and arrested after he allegedly harassed a teenage girl and her brother, then attacked and sexually assaulted their mother. That suspect, Brandon Lee Jackson of Eugene, faces numerous charges, including first-degree sexual abuse.
