There is an additional section (just to the right) that says the security guy will not be charged according to the local DA.

'bout time.

You can bet the DA didn't have to think real hard about that one.

The proposal that such a charge could be entertained almost certainly originated in the far left bias of either the management ranks of the reporting media outlet or the reporter, and was based on politics rather than news.

You'll note that the possibility of charges was not attributed to any legal or law enforcement authority at all, not even one "requesting anonymity because he wasn't authorized to speak on the issue " - a dead giveaway it was made up by the folks who printed it.

Maybe they should drop "New" from their name as they are looking more and more like England.

I read the "possible charges" part in the news article as the media spin to keep folks from getting any logical ideas from the lifesaving actions of a citizen who used a gun to end a robbery / attempted murder incident.

No DA would touch a charge like that under the reported circumstances, even in New York. The guy will get a medal from the PD eventually.
