Monday morning feel good story

Chief tango sends us our feel good stories once again. This time the first one comes from Virginia;

Police say the suspect [Mohamed Sankoh, 21, of Fayetteville, N.C.] entered the store and approached the jewelry counter. With a hammer in each hand, they say the suspect broke the glass display cases.

Prince William County Police spokesperson Jonathan Perok says the officer encountered the suspect in the store, issued commands, then followed him to the parking lot where he issued more commands. The suspect ignored them and was subsequently shot by the officer.

It is unclear whether the officer drew his gun inside the store or once they were outside.

The next story is from Oklahoma;

Tulsa County deputies say the homeowner caught the suspect trying to break into his car, but security video later helped investigators determine two men were involved in the attempted break-in.

Neighbors say burglaries are a problem in the neighborhood, which is why deputies say the victim walked outside armed, prepared to confront the burglar.

“Neighbors and [the] homeowner say they’ve had some other break-ins and thefts of lawn mowers and stuff, but nothing like this has happened,” said Capt. John Bryant.

Bryant says the homeowner confronted the suspect, who shot first. The homeowner then returned fire.

The homeowner wasn’t hurt and deputies don’t think he struck either suspect either.
