In the middle of the confusing crossing of words, Kilcer, who was lining up to be treated at the counter, realizes the facts and reacts violently against the armed criminal, causing a struggle to seize the power of the pistol.

“I was getting ready to turn around to leave and I heard the door swing open aggressively (…) the first thing I thought was that it was a terribly small cannon”, said Kilcer in conversation for the local media ‘ABC Arizona 15’.
