Relatives of Torres Bruster prayed for a miracle for more than six weeks, but early Wednesday morning the 48-year-old man died days after he was taken off life support.

AKRON, Ohio — Relatives of Torres Bruster prayed for a miracle for more than six weeks, but early Wednesday morning, the 48-year-old man died days after he was taken off life support.

"It's chaos, a nightmare. It's unbelievable. It's just bad. It's all bad," said his sister, Linda Bruster. During the encounter, the man reportedly made threats to kill her, began damaging the store and tried to grab her through a plexiglass divider. A male employee called 911. "He was standing there like everybody else in line. It was not his business. He was not involved. He had nothing to do with it. Unfortunately, he was shot by the worker in the store," said Charles Tyler, an attorney representing the Bruster family.

On Wednesday, News 5 stopped by the gas station and a cashier confirmed she fired the fatal shot, but she said it was an accident. She declined to discuss the case any further.
