A second alleged robber fled the store.

WDTN reports the 911 call was released a day later, revealing details of how the incident unfolded.

The call went as follows:

Caller: “Papa John’s New Carlisle 410 North Main Street. Someone just broke in and they were shot in self-defense.”

911 Operator: “Ok, somebody just broke in?”

Caller: “They came right in with weapons and tried to rob us. They’re still in here. There’s one shot and wounded on the floor. One of them ran out.”

The deceased suspect was identified as 21-year-old Gage Melton.
