Default PA: CCW Stops Serial robber

--> Serial robber shot in self defense by concealed carry permit holder
Quote:
Police say that a robber, who had already victimized two other people that evening, approached his third victim just after midnight. The robber reportedly shoved the victim against a vehicle, threatened him, and demanded money. The victim, who was armed for self defense, drew his handgun and shot the robber, ending the attack. A bystander called 911, and police arrived to find the robber dead and the victim unharmed. The victim had a concealed carry permit [...]

All to often the man with a gun is referred to as the suspect and the dead guy the victim. It's nice to read an article that refers to the armed citizen as the victim and the suspect as a robber.

its unfortunate that a man died - and I'm sure that the shooter will probably have a long road to emotional recovery. It's also unfortunate that the criminal didn't value his life enough to stay a way from such a dangerous course of action.

Glad tax dollars won't go to housing and feeding that guy.

It would be nice to see this on the main stream media, not just the bad guys shooting up schools and inocent people. May help with less gun control laws being passed.

I will not hold my breath waiting to see it on TV.
