MANNING, S.C. (AP) - Investigators say a clerk at a Manning dry cleaner survived and managed to call 911 after a robber took her to the back of the store and shot her execution style.

Authorities told WIS-TV that 23-year-old Heather Brammer remains in the hospital after being shot in the base of her skull.

Investigators say a man came into City Laundry and Cleaners on Friday, took cash from the register, then brought Brammer to the back of the store and shot her in the head.

WIS obtained the tape of a 911 call Brammer made after the shooting, where she tells the operator she was shot, along with "my head's killing me'' and "I can't see right.''

Police haven't made any arrests.

I can't believe the callous acts that people will go to, no regard for human life at all. This woman was working trying to earn an honest living and this criminal who thinks he can take what he obviously isn't working for comes in and just shoots her. I hope he is caught and suffers for what he did. God bless this woman and her family. I don't think it is ever safe for one person to work alone in any business.

Has anyone referenced the Lane Bryant murders that happened in February. Remarkable similarities in the cases, including the composite sketches?!?!
