Police said the man entered the barbershop while it was open and started demanding wallets and purses while flashing a gun.
One of the business owners, described as a man, did not comply quickly enough with the orders and was pistol-whipped by the other man, according to SAPD.
The suspect then focused his attention on the other business owner, a woman, and pulled out zip ties. At the same time, the male business owner pulled out a gun and shot the man multiple times in the chest, SAPD told KSAT.
The man who attempted to rob the business was hospitalized with life-threatening injuries.
Police said the male business owner had the right to use lethal force and is not expected to face charges.
