Columbia (WLTX) - A man who tried to rob people at an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting is dead after being shot.
Columbia Police say a man in his late teens walked into the meeting at 2015 College Street, the Acoa Club, at 11 p.m. Saturday night with a gun.
They say he demanded two people empty their pockets. That's when police say a person with a concealed weapons permit shot the man in his chest.
He was taken to Palmetto Richland where he later died.
Witnesses tell officials that a handful of people were in the building at the time of the shooting.
So far, no charges have been filed.
