Wig Shop Owner Killed While Trying To Stop Kids Who Ran Off With A Blonde Unit

This is just so sad! A wig shop owner in downtown Los Angeles was fatally stabbed while trying to stop a robbery last weekend, police said.

According to NY Post, Tommy Lee, 56, was working at his wig shop around 1:15 p.m. Saturday when two 17-year-olds tried to rob him.

“They were looking at a wig. And then all of a sudden they made a run for it,” landlord Davina Kangavari told the news station.

Cellphone footage and surveillance captured one of the robbers looking at a blond wig before the duo fled, prompting the man to chase them.

“Tommy had a record of being tough and going after robbers. He started chasing them around [the] shopping center and then the boy pulled out a knife and shanked him right in the heart,” Kangavari said

Both suspects, a boy and girl, were arrested following the attack. Their identities haven’t been released because they’re minors.

“I don’t think he ever imagined he would be murdered over a wig,” Kangavari said.
