Re: TX: Deadly force in defense of 3rd party against unarmed assailant

A woman attacked a girl who works with my girlfriend as she was leaving work, tried to steal her purse and car and when she resisted started beating on her. Another co worker tried to intervene and she was also thrown to the ground and injured. The business owners husband noticed and grabbed his pistol out of his truck and held her until police arrived. Luckily the gf was off that day, had I been there however I could not justify shooting the unarmed woman without first trying to physically stop her. I do think every situation is different though, if physically stopping the attack without serious injury is possible it would be preferable, but if my currently pregnant girlfriend was being attacked I would be looking for the fastest way to stop the attack with 2 lives being on the line.
