Friday morning feel good stories

This morning’s stories for your morning coffee begin as they so often do – in Texas;

According to HPD, an employee was carrying a bag as he arrived to work. When he got to the door of the business, a robber put a gun to his back and demanded cash.

The worker had a concealed handgun license and was hiding his own gun underneath the bag. When he turned to face the robber, he shot the robber two to three times in the chest.

The robber was transported to the hospital in serious condition.

The bag the employee was carrying was filled with toiletries, not cash, as the suspect may have believed.

Toiletries aren’t worth a life, you thieves need to keep reminding yourselves of that little nugget.

When deputies arrived, officials say they found two dead adult men outside a home on McLemore Court. A third person had been injured and was transported to a local hospital for treatment.

According to Sheriff’s Office Detectives, the preliminary investigation indicates the residents of the home at McLemore heard a disturbance outside their home shortly before 11:30 p.m.

Residents of the home, including a male in his late fifties and his elderly father, went out to the front yard to check on the disturbance. The homeowners were confronted by two adult men, both unknown to them.

The residents sustained injuries as the confrontation escalated. During this time, the son shot at the two subjects, resulting in their deaths.
