Saturday morning feel good stories
From Detroit, Michigan;
Police said the unidentified 46-year-man received a “telephonic” message that the residence he owned was being burglarized in the 2900 block of Lakewood. He engaged the two suspects after one pointed a gun at the homeowner, and he shot the 16-year-old in the groin, right arm and back.
The juvenile remains in critical condition at an unidentified hospital. Police said a handgun was recovered at the scene, and the homeowner is cooperating with authorities.
Another black male, who was wearing all black with no other description, escaped from the scene on foot.
In Dallas, Texas;
During the burglary, the homeowner got his gun and confronted the burglary suspect as the suspect tried to burglarize the homeowner’s car located in his side fenced in driveway.
As the homeowner confronted the suspect, the suspect approached the homeowner at which time the homeowner fired a weapon and shot him.
The suspect fled the location, but was discovered deceased a short distance from the scene. The homeowner was taken to the Jack Evans Headquarters to be interviewed and was released.
From Madison, Wisconsin;
Madison police say an attempted robber is dead after a security guard tried protecting those inside a east side bank on Thursday.
It happened at the Chase bank on the 4500 block of Milwaukee Street around 5p.m., roughly an hour before the bank closed.
Officers say a masked man walked in and was shot dead by a private security guard who police say started working at the branch just three weeks ago.
Madison Police Chief Mike Koval said the would-be robber was shot one time and died inside the bank after he barged in and demanded money.
“He pulled a mask up over his face and postured as if he had something in his hands cause his hands couldn’t be seen as something was draped over them as if he had something that he was grasping,” said Chief Koval.
It’s still not known if the man had a weapon, but a private security guard took no chances. He shot the attempted robber in front of seven people inside the bank including at least one customer, according to Koval.

DRT by a real security guard, and not a Lifelock commercial security monitor or certain S. Florida Sheriff Deputies. Good guy with a gun taking decisive action.

Two Darwin Award winners here today. Hopefully if the live one survives he won’t be making any new award winners!
I wonder what the Scrabble Score is on today’s crew?
