Peter realises that his uncle's killer is the man he let escape

The "Cash Register Thief" is first seen robbing a convenience store, shortly after Peter Parker had argued with the clerk over being a few cents short to pay for a bottle of chocolate milk. After distracting the clerk, the thief steals money from the register and tosses Peter the milk bottle. Already upset, Peter lets the thief go out of spite. Very shortly after, the thief bumps into Ben Parker, Peter's uncle, dropping his gun. After wrestling for the weapon, the thief eventually gets a grip on it and shoots Ben Parker, killing him. 

Peter later attempts to find and apprehend the killer in an act of revenge for his uncle's death, before donning the mantle of "Spider-Man" and becoming a hero.
