Jose Rojas, 34, who was injured during the botched robbery turned shooting, faces two counts of aggravated robbery and one count of capital murder.

Court records indicate Rojas has an extensive criminal history, including several felony drug possession charges, DWI, assault, criminal mischief and resisting arrest.

If you leave them alone, they always leave peacefully. That's how I was trained. If you arrive at the scene of an armed robbery and the suspect is still there, do not provoke or threaten them. They will always leave on their own and you can discretely follow them. When they get home and go to sleep, you pounce and no one gets hurt. Armed robbers, especially these gang bangers, only lash out when provoked. You can bet your life on it.
