There’s a common phrase that “what goes around comes around”. However, when three Memphis robbery suspects attempted to rob a woman of her purse and backpack, they didn’t expect justice to come back to them in the form of bullets.

A woman was returning home to her apartment early Saturday, when a black car began to follow her. Nervous, the woman notified her boyfriend at home and arrived shortly afterwards.

Upon arriving home, three women jumped out of the black car and preceded to rob and pistol-whip the victim, taking a purse with $240 inside. The victim’s boyfriend witnessed the attack and came outside with a handgun creating a stand off.

The robbers soon fled and the victim’s boyfriend shot at them, breaking a glass window and injuring 20-year-old Britney Harrison. As the criminals fled, their vehicle ran out of gas and they phoned paramedics to treat Harrison’s wounds. As Harrison was rushed to the hospital, 21-year-old Tikita Bradford and 20-year-old Amber Jackson were arrested.

Harrison has since left the hospital and is now in police custody. All three suspects were charged with aggravated robbery, while the victim’s boyfriend has not been charged.
