#1

Post by sugar land dave »

A customer at a convenience store tried to hold the entrance door closed to trap robbers inside. He was shot through the door as the 2 men left the store.

Not a smart move. Once they are fleeing and the danger is over, let them go. :banghead:

What a Moron! Given the area that this happened in I'm not suprised that this is the option chosen by the customer.

I really can't see trying to hold a glass door closed against two bad guys even if they weren't armed. This was not this poor fellow's best self defense move.
