Not only did Bruno
Kirchenwitz's U.S. Border Patrol baseball cap help get him fired, it almost got
him shot.
Mr. Kirchenwitz, 54, was
dismissed from his part-time job at 7-Eleven in Basalt after he was threatened
by two Hispanic men who are suspected of later pumping five bullets into the
store.
Mr. Kirchenwitz, who left
work less than an hour before the shooting, was terminated by Southland Corp.,
which owns the 7-Eleven chain of convenience stores, for violating the
company's "non-confrontation policy."
