Sunday morning feel good stories

From Covington, Georgia;

According to Capt. Craig Treadwell, police officers were pursuing a man driving recklessly in a pickup truck Saturday morning when the suspect jumped from the truck at Newton Plaza and fled on foot. At that point, said Treadwell, another motorist intervened.

“A Good Samaritan comes across with his pickup truck and cuts the guy off,” said Treadwell. “And he steps out of his pickup truck, produces his firearm and shoots the guy in the head.”

Treadwell said the shooter fired just one shot from a handgun.

The “Good Samaritan” has been charged with aggravated assault. The suspect is “critically wounded”. The suspect had been driving recklessly and had struck a parked car while he was evading arrest.

The other day, we talked about a homeowner who shot and killed two burglars in Brentwood, California. Police cleared the homeowner of any wrong doing and determined it was a good shoot. Here’s the video of the incident;

From Louisville, Kentucky;

When officers arrived at the scene in the 2400 block of West Jefferson Street, the[y] found a victim and a suspect with gunshot wounds. The victim was transported to University Hospital with multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead shortly after. The suspect, identified as 20-year-old Milik Lewis, was pronounced dead at the scene.

According to a preliminary investigation, police believe the shooting stemmed from an attempted robbery. Police say 26-year-old Marlon Carpenter, 30-year-old Shalita Harris along with Lewis, all came to the victim’s residence armed with handguns and a rifle, in an attempt to rob him.

Police say that’s when gunfire was exchanged with the three suspects shooting the victim. Police said the victim returned gunfire which hit Carpenter and Lewis.

Aside from the dead criminal, three others have been arrested or identified for arrest later.
