And when he tried to shoot the grocer for refusing to accept the bill, his gun jammed.&nbsp;&nbsp;This all started when Paul Ybarra, 39, and an unidentified suspect parked their SUV at a produce stand on Loop 410 East on the city's South side just before Roosevelt Ave around 9:30 a.m. April 24.Read MoreWhile the other suspect stayed in the SUV, Ybarra reportedly walked up to the stand and tried to buy a $3 watermelon with a counterfeit $20. Court records said the grocer noticed the fake bill and refused to accept it.&nbsp;That's when Ybarra, according to an arrest affidavit, went back to the SUV and came back to the stand with a gun and pointed it at the grocer and tried pulling the trigger but it didn't go off. Arrest papers said the 39-year-old went back to the SUV and handed it back to the unidentified suspect to fix it. By the time he got back, the affidavit said the employees, customers and two children were hiding in a storage building nearby.&nbsp; Still, Ybarra fired his gun three times towards the storage building.&nbsp;Shortly afterwards, Ybarra fled the scene with the unidentified driver before officers arrived.&nbsp;Witnesses were able to identify Ybarra with photos they took and after an investigation, officers were able to arrest Ybarra the next day.&nbsp;He is currently facing 3rd degree felony charges for Deadly Conduct with a Firearm.&nbsp;
