Carjacker Who Couldn’t Drive Manual Car Shot by Car Owner, Police Say
It isn’t often that an inability to drive stick leads to a gunfight. That’s apparently what happened in San Antonio.

BY LUCAS BELL
A gunfight erupted between carjackers and a car owner in San Antonio Thursday morning leaving one of the alleged thieves wounded in the head, police say. The suspects were apparently unable to steal the car they targeted due to struggles with its manual transmission.

The car owner and the other person they were with were approached by a pair of suspects on their way out of a bar at around 2:45 a.m. on Thursday, a spokesperson for the San Antonio Police Department told Road & Track. The alleged carjackers then demanded they leave their vehicle and hand over their keys at gunpoint. The victims complied, giving their keys over to one of the suspects. One of the suspects then slunk into the driver’s seat of the vehicle, but quickly realized the vehicle featured a manual transmission. Unable to operate an old-school standard, the thief immediately exited the victim’s vehicle before returning to their own ride, which was occupied by the second suspect.

One of the suspects began to open fire on the failed robbery targets shortly after returning to their vehicle, police say. The victims then returned fire on the suspects, ultimately striking one of them with a grazing wound to the head. This ended the gunfight, with the suspects fleeing the location.

Yeahhhh, shit’s about to get very real. Get ready to hear all about how Israel is attacking hospitals and schools. If you don’t want your hospitals and schools attacked, you probably shouldn’t put your rocket launchers there. Just sayin’.

If you REALLY want to f^ck a bad car thief up, make the dash board graphics in cursive and stick an analog clock in the middle.

Lewis Grizzard…the Mark Twain of our time. May he and Catfish continue to Rest Easy. I was honored to know him and had all of his books, signed FIRST (ht2 to the Krayon Kid) Editions. Alas, I didn’t get custody of them from the wicked bitch of the west. When Lewis died, thus did the Atlanta Junk and Constipation died.

Just cause it looks like a 1911, has 1911 features, and feels like a 1911, until it is in the caliber that God and HMS JMB (HBHN) intended…it is NOT a 1911.

Gun Bunny,
That Dan Wesson looks more like an updated and modified P35, don’t care what anyone sez. Put pics side by side.
The P35 genetic lines are there.
So, yes, it’s a distant relation of the late great JMB, but it ain’t no 1911 in 45ACP
