Monday morning feel good story

This story comes from Texas;

A man walked into the JK Food Mart at Carroll and SPID and tried to buy two cartons of cigarettes with a credit that was denied. The clerk told police the man then grabbed the cigarettes and ran outside.

Earlier reports said the suspect told the store owner he had a gun, but that information isn’t in a follow-up brief from CCPD.

As the suspect was getting into a waiting car, the owner fired three shots. None of the bullets hit the robber or the driver. But the robber took off running down Carroll Lane.

The getaway driver stayed put and is now being questioned by police. No charges have been filed against him.

Bullets are still cheaper than cigarettes. For the time being, anyway.

From NRA News, a pizza delivery man in Georgia, a legal concealed weapon carrier, successfully defended himself and his wares from a fellow wielding a club and an elderly man used his personal weapon in Kentucky to defend himself from a fellow who had cut him with a knife, in the elderly man’s home;

Chief Tango sends us another story from Oklahoma where it took a firearm to settle a family spat;

Pontotoc County Sheriff John Christian said the incident occurred when a man went to the home of his ex-girlfriend, where she resided with the father of her children.

The two men scuffled and the father of her children allegedly shot and killed the man. Christian said the woman had left the man the day before and returned to the father of her children.

Law enforcement is investigating whether or not the shooting was in self-defense. Christian said he is not releasing names until next of kin has been notified.
