Here's an archived article on the incident.
Here's that article not archived so you can watch the longer length video with the before and after.
Transcript and description of the footage, minus the video from OP (so basically from "I'm dead.... I'm dead" onwards):
[Store owner drags body round to the front of the shop nearish to the door]
Stabbed Guy: Please
[Store owner goes out back for a second (I think to grab his phone)]
Owner: Call 911.......... Call 911 (using Siri or something)
Stabbed Guy: Don't let me die, sir.
Phone: Calling Emergency Services
Stabbed Guy: I'm sorry. This wasn't my idea.
Owner, calmly but dismissively: Shut up.
Stabbed Guy: Please don't let me die.
Owner: [proceeds to talk to the emergency services]
The article quotes him as saying he just wanted the police and ambulance to arrive on time, but this guy had no respect for this piece of shit, and fucking good on him. The only thing I would say is that this is a good reason to have a firearm and to learn how to use it. Which is what is seems like he'll be doing. From the article:
So not only do we have a case of a store owner defending his shop, but he also realises he got lucky and will therefore be looking to better defend his shop (most likely with a gun). The only thing that didn't work out was the other guy got away.
The owner also had a small AMA over at reddit. Sadly he deleted everything now, because he was advised that it might not look good for him in a potential court case.
But thankfully archives exist ;)
Question: "Are you worried they might come back at a later time as retaliation? Might be a good time to arm yourself."
Answer: "that's why i got a gun"
