FLA:Storeowner kills robber,a 16 y.o. regular customer.

http://www.abcactionnews.com/dpp/news/r ... illing-him

The above link is to a Tampa, Florida news video about a storeowner who was being robbed.

The BG was a 16 year old neighborhood boy, who she knew by name. He came into her store with his gun raised.

She carries her handgun every day ON BODY in her pocket. She drew immediately, on his drawn gun, and began firing.

Note the large hole in the wall where she missed with her first shot. It doesn't seem likely that a handgun round could
make such a big hole.

This storeowner shows us several lessons, IMHO:
Concealed means concealed. The robber didn't know she was packing heat.
She was carrying her handgun loaded and on her person, not somewhere else.
She drew quickly upon seeing the BG approach with his gun.
She engaged quickly.
She engaged the deadly threat and did not let her knowing the boy stop her from protecting her own life.

It's sad when a 16 year old has so little moral direction that he robs a lady he knows.
Unfortunately for his dead self, he found out that he had made an error in the victim selection process.
