Seems like it resolved the immediate issue. Store owner did not lose thousands of $ for which he said he was not insured. Perp. was not killed and was able to walk away. Optimally he learned his lesson, especially regarding threatening people with a knife (real or not).

Proper resolution should have been the perp. arrest, conviction and incarceration but thats hard to get in SF.
