Odd Comments on the Death of Two Robbers

A store owner shot 4 men during a hold-up in NYC a few days ago. Two died. The Times reports:
Another crying woman, surrounded by family members, heard one of her relatives had been shot trying to rob a store.

“Oh my God!” she wailed. “Why would they want to rob a store?” She started to scream: “Damn! Why? Why would he go to a family store? He got money!” She slumped against the wall and began to pray.

Emphasis mine. Later in the article:

“How the hell are you going to rob someone in broad daylight?” said Sarah Martin, president of the General Grant Residents Association.

Emphasis mine. Is it just me, or do these comments seem a little... odd?
