White media reports:
ST. PETERSBURG — The two robbers walked into the 7-Eleven about 1 a.m. Tuesday.
No one was inside the 24-hour store at Fourth Street and 62nd Avenue N except for two clerks.
The first robber, identified by police as 20-year-old Ebony C. Oliver, put a knife to one of the clerks' throat and ordered her to open the register. The second robber, identified as 36-year-old Lamont J. Burgess, stood nearby with a shotgun, they said.
Burgess and Oliver soon left out the front door with the cash they came for, authorities said.
An undercover police officer already had seen them. And minutes later, Burgess was dead.
Police said Burgess got into a confrontation with a second undercover officer who arrived as backup in the alley behind the convenience store.
"At some point, he leveled the gun at the detective," said St. Petersburg police spokesman Mike Puetz.
So the 33-year-old officer opened fire. Burgess died at the scene. (Source)
