There is a difference between ‘shoot at’ and ‘hit.’
Police: Man fatally stabbed another man before being shot, killed in South Hill altercation
By Garrett Cabeza
A man attacked a woman with a knife and then fatally stabbed a man before another man shot and killed the knife-wielding suspect in self-defense Tuesday at a South Hill apartment complex, according to the Spokane Police Department.Officers were called about 5:15 p.m. to an altercation at the Hart Terrace apartment building, 3308 E. 11th Ave., police said in a news release. Lt. Jay Kernkamp told reporters Tuesday that officers found two people injured in the parking lot of the complex. Police and other emergency personnel tried to save them, but both died, according to the release.
Detectives believe the man with a knife first attacked a woman in the apartment building, according to a Wednesday police release. The woman was uninjured as another tenant came to her aid and pulled her into an apartment, separating her from the man.
The man with the knife then stabbed and killed a different man near a stairwell, police said.
The suspect with the knife started walking through the complex before encountering a man walking a dog. The suspect ran at the man, who drew a gun and shot the suspect, killing him in what appeared to be self-defense, police said.
The man with the gun tried to aid the victim with the stab wound before police arrived, according to police.

Another free-range meltdown. Thanks, Gun Bunny.

Nothing good happens at the weed store at 0420….
Moral to the story is don’t take a crowbar to a gunfight unless you think you can pry yourself out of the mess you may find yourself in. Lucky for them the Security Guard was suffering from a lack of range time.
Nutjobs are everywhere. Be Aware…and armed.
Good advice Dali. Stay pumped up and ready to defend yourself…and others. If one can’t afford that Benelli, a nice Mossy Maverick works just as well to put a bad guy on ice, man…whenever you find yourself in a danger zone.
Now…if I can just get myself pumped up to make this meeting I need to be at…or at the very least get pumped up to get to The Pig for some light provisions. Done run out of milk and bread. DAMNIT! The Gun Bunny has been a little wobbly of late.
Hope you get better. A wobbly redleg is liable to put rounds in unintended places.
Really want to find the dispensary perps?
Just follow the brown and yellow trails they left as they ran away.
RE the security guard. Keep in mind the location. Likely being paid minimum wage and has no provided insurance for defense should the extreme left wing DA decide the shooting of the burglar (a helpless victim of the right extremists) was not justified. In this case he achieved thew security of the business and won’t be facing charges for use of a gun to shoot a “person”. AFAIAC he got the right solution to safeguard himself too.
Point.
