Saturday morning feel good stories
From Hernando, Mississippi;
According to the Desoto County Sheriff’s Department, the woman was home when the man tried to make his way inside around 2:30 a.m.
She grabbed a gun and opened fire, shooting through the door and hitting the suspect.
The suspect was taken to Baptist Desoto but was eventually rushed to the Regional Medical Center.
He was listed as stable with a gunshot to the arm, authorities said. The homeowner was not injured.
From Houston, Texas;
Around 2:45 a.m., the robbers approached two people sitting inside of a car in front of one of their homes on Easton near Berkeley, said Robert Montalvo with the Houston Police Department’s major assaults unit.
The robbers – one of whom was armed – tried to nab the possessions of the car’s occupants. A struggle ensued between one of the robbers and one of the people who was in the car.
At some point during the tussle, the armed robber fired the pistol, Montalvo said. The bullet hit the other robber in the chest.
The injured robber was taken to an area hospital and underwent surgery early Friday.
From Horry, South Carolina;
The victim of the armed robbery, a 46-year-old Conway man, told police that he was conducting security at the church at about 11 p.m. when the suspect approached him and asked for change for $20. When the victim got the change, the suspect pointed a black handgun at the suspect’s stomach and told him to give him the money.
The victim handed over the money, and as the suspect began to walk away, the victim pulled out his weapon, the report states. That’s when the suspect shot at the victim, but the round hit victim’s driver’s side car door. The victim said he then returned fire, and as the suspect tried to shoot back, the suspect’s gun jammed. The victim told police he emptied his weapon as he shot at the suspect.
The suspect then ran to the nearby Tanger Outlets, told a bystander that he had been shot, and asked to take him to the hospital. The suspect then collapsed in the parking lot near Ruby Tuesday, where he was treated by EMS on scene and taken to a nearby hospital.

“The victim told police he emptied his weapon as he shot at the suspect.”
“Its the only way to be sure” – Cpl Hicks
I guess if the perp was “armed”, then he or she would have to have at least one or two arms attached to their bodies to fire the weapon. And no, I was not out drinking last night.
I heard of a case of a woman at home alone. She heard the front door chime and thought it was her hubby who just left.
A stranger.
She was standing on the landing upstairs near the door to the master bedroom.
She rushed to the bedside table to get her handgun.
By the time she returns to the landing he was on the
first flight of stairs. She warns him to turn around and
leave.
He kept coming.
She warned him one more time and when he took the next step ignoring her warning, she shot him
He was DOA when police arrived
Who knows what he would have done had she not been armed.
Too bad the perv in Hernando was not as lucky as this one.
