Montgomery police are investigating after a man suspected of robbing a business was shot and killed by the store’s employee Sunday.
According to Capt. Regina Duckett, Donnelle L Jackson, 32, is the subject of a death investigation.
Duckett says around 7:30 p.m. officers were called to the 3200 block of Mobile Highway after a call of a business robbery. An employee of the business was said to have fired a weapon at an armed suspect who then ran from the store.
From Santa Ana, California;
Authorities say a father shot an intruder at his daughter’s Santa Ana home as the man tried to crawl through a window.
The Orange County Register reports Santa Ana Police Cpl. Anthony Bertagna says officers responded to the house at 1:50 a.m. Sunday after receiving a domestic violence call, but the intruder — the woman’s ex-boyfriend — was not there when they arrived.

“as the man tried to crawl through a window”
Common way to get your girlfriend to take you back into her loving arms. Happend here a few years ago. She had a gun, he took it away and shot her. Guy hid in the woods all summer.
Then winter came……….
From the Mobile, AL, WFSA article:
“The investigation into the robbery and shooting remain under investigation.”
Sister Mary Grace gives the WFSA staff a head smack with her 12-inch ruler, and makes them all write ‘redundancy is stupid’ 150 times on the blackboard, in Spencerian longhand.
A 49 y.o. vs a 20 y.o.
Age, experience, and treachery will win against youth and enthusiasm every time.
Bought some chicken and did some ass kick’n.
If the guy at the Orlando chicken place didn’t “chicken” “out” when he confronted the perp, he must have ate in the store. I think I got this one right or was it that bad.
No surprise at the Orlando event. The area of Texas & Americana is known, by everyone in OCSO, as “The Center of the Combat Zone.” Worked many, many shifts in that area. Head always on a swivel. One less hood rat now in that area. 10-98NR…TOT Medical Examiner.
