Tuesday morning, someone saw Allen and McCaffity park a car on the sidewalk in front of a Harford Road liquor store in northeast Baltimore. The owner of the store walked out to tell them they couldn't park there and police say the suspects then pulled a gun. 

Someone nearby was able to flag down an officer. The officer went into the store and fired one shot. Allen surrendered immediately. McCaffity hid in a refrigerator before giving up and being taken into custody.
