From Chicago, Illinois;
As the sun was rising in Chicago this past weekend, 54-year-old Marnita Carter said she was confronted at a bus stop by a man. The man pulled out a gun, and demanded she hand over her purse.
But Ms Carter was not having it. Once the gun was out and cocked, she said she pulled it out of his hands. She shot his hand. They struggled before she was thrown to the ground, and the man said he was going to shoot her for what she’d done.
The gun jammed. The robber ran.
From Castlegar, B.C., Canada, a restaurant owner WON’T be prosecuted for protecting himself from an intruder;
Castlegar RCMP Sgt. Laurel Mathew says the incident took place on Sept. 3 at around 4:40 a.m. PT. The owner of Chameleon restaurant was sleeping in his living space above the restaurant when he heard smashing and glass breaking.
He went to investigate, she explained, taking his .22 revolver to protect himself.
“He went downstairs and was confronted by an intruder who bear sprayed him in the face, incapacitating him,” she said.
As he was being sprayed, the owner fired his gun. The suspect managed to run away and the owner called police.
A few days later, after receiving a number of tips from the public, police were able to nab a suspect, 35-year-old Brandon Malkinson of Nelson.
Malkinson had been wounded by the gunshot but stayed four days in the Kootenays without going to a doctor or hospital.
“[After his arrest] he was taken to the doctor by the police, checked over and found to be fit for incarceration,” Mathew said, adding he did not have serious injuries.
The crook was sentenced to 30 months in prison. He went to trial, and was sentenced the same week.

Well good, none of these dirtbags were called victims today.
I feel really bad for the restaurant owner that was bear sprayed in the face, that must of been horrible. Stupid jerk dirtbag, I’m glad he managed to shoot the moron even after getting bear sprayed.
It looks like Marnita of Shotcago needs some training. The only reason she is not a statistic is because the bad guy’s gun malfunctioned.
