PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — An altercation at a North Philadelphia gas station ended with an armed security guard firing a gunshot.

It happened at the KARCO gas station at Broad and Clearfield streets around 5 p.m. Monday.

Police say a 39-year-old man approached the security guard with a large concrete rock about the size of a softball.

“They were involved in some sort of verbal altercation, and that’s when the 39-year-old male – who was holding the rock – threw it at the security guard,” said Chief Inspector Scott Small.

The guard then fired one shot, Small said, but no one was hit. The guard was not hit by the rock.

Police arrested the rock thrower for simple assault and reckless endangerment.

Suspect dies after police shooting on Indy’s south side

by: Ashley Fowler and Hanna Mordoh
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A man died Tuesday morning after he was shot by police on the south side of Indianapolis.

Just after 3 a.m., Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers were called to a domestic disturbance with a weapon.

The female caller reported a man, later identified as 37-year-old Eric Taylor, was going to “kill them all,” IMPD said in a release.

Officers found the female caller near the intersection of Madison Avenue and East Southport Road.

She told officers someone called to tell her that her ex-boyfriend — identified as Taylor — was on his way to her house to kill her. She said that she left her home with her kids and Taylor followed her, IMPD says.

Officers found Taylor’s vehicle in the area and tried to stop him, but he refused to pull over for officers and a chase began.

IMPD says the pursuit ended at the Bradford Lake Apartments on Portage Terrace near Stop 10 Road and Madison Avenue when Taylor stopped driving and got out of the vehicle with a gun in his hand.

“The suspect repeatedly said, ‘Shoot me,’ to the officers. Officers gave the suspect multiple commands to put the gun down and get on the ground.

Thanks again, Gun Bunny.

Americans need not fear the federal government because they enjoy the advantage of being armed, which you possess over the people of almost every other nation.
