2 separate fatal shootings in Montco deemed self-defense, DA says

By: JIM MELWERT
EAGLEVILLE, Pa. (KYW Newsradio) — The Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office has ruled that two separate fatal shootings from last month are justified as self-defense.

Robert Pollack, 55, was shot and killed in Collegeville on Feb. 16, after he kicked in a door of a home on East Third Avenue and pointed his gun at two people in the house.

Twelve days later, 28-year-old Alan Womack was shot and killed in the parking lot of an LA Fitness in King of Prussia.

The District Attorney’s Office said Womack started an argument with someone he didn’t know during a pick-up basketball game inside the gym, then waited for that man outside. Investigators say when Womack pulled a gun in the parking lot and racked a round into the chamber, the other man pulled a gun from his backpack and shot Womack in the chest.

All guns involved were legally owned and carried.

Three in two, Delta Whiskies and Whiskettes, for a Sunday Trifecta. That’s two this week, not that I’m going to read too much into it. Just the way it sometimes goes in the wide wicked world.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? […] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!” —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 “Arrest”)
