GRESHAM, Ore. - An Oregon man was arrested Tuesday after he allegedly tried to rob a cab driver at gunpoint before getting shot by his own firearm. Josiah Johnson, 18, was picked up by the cab driver in Gresham, Ore., where he was asked to provide his phone as collateral due to the long drive. When they arrived at an intersection in Aloha the driver said Johnson tried to pay with a $100 bill, which he immediately recognized was fake. Johnson allegedly pulled a gun out and pointed it at the back of the cab driver’s head while yelling at the driver who wasn't able to understand him. The unidentified cabbie then saw an opportunity to grab the gun from Johnson. "A struggle occurred over the gun, and during the struggle, the gun discharged - striking Mr. Johnson," according to a media release by the Washington County Sheriff's Office. "The bullet entered Mr. Johnson’s left hip and exited out his left buttocks."
