Gas station clerk reportedly attacked on the job
JACKSON, Tenn. — A convenience store clerk was reportedly attacked on the job by two customers.
It happened around 4 a.m. Monday at the Circle K at the intersection of Dr. F.E. Wright Drive and North Parkway.
Carondelet Baker says she was assaulted by two people attempting to buy tobacco.
Baker says a woman tried to make the purchase but didn’t have her ID.
The clerk says a man then came into the store to also buy tobacco.
She believes they were together, but Baker refused to make the sale because of store policy.
She says the two suspects repeatedly punched her in the face.
Baker says she saw both suspects get into a car and leave the scene.
Jackson police said they are investigating the incident.
