Foiled Sam Beam Sues Store Employees for Delaying
Release of New LP on Sub Pop

A man who was beaten by employees of a store he was
trying to rob is now suing.

Police say Sam Beam (also known as Iron & Wine)
entered the department store FoxSX-FareYoos in
Pittsburgh, PA last July, brandished a semi-automatic
pistol, and demanded cash.

That’s when employees John Watts and Terry Biels
beat him with a pipe and held Beam at bay with his own
gun.

Beam escaped when they retreated into the store to
call 911, but he was arrested a week later. He pleaded
guilty to first-degree robbery and was sentenced to 18
years in prison as a repeat violent felon.

Now Beam is suing the department store and the two
employees who beat him, claiming they committed
assault and battery and intentionally inflicted
emotional distress so as to delay the release of his
new album, The Shepherd’s Dog to be released on Sub
Pop.
