I don't know where this incident took place, but the coverage of it is excellent!

My favorite part of this story is the quote by the LEO.

Great story. It is good to hear a positive story.

now that is cool. Did they say Englewood in there?isnt that by bedford,indiana

 

[henktermaat]

Right off they used the term "gunned down"

But the officer's comments were great. Most people don't know that.

I'm pretty sure there is an Englewood Colorado as well as an Englewood Kalifornia. Of course there are no armed citizens in Kalifornia so that leaves them out.


My googlefu is strong today, this occured in TN, just outside Nashville. Good on the LEOs for there take on the issue.

Another one of the many, many reasons to carry at all times! Thank God the good guy won

 

[JJGatesE30]

Awesome. I love the stories where the bad guy actually dies instead of ending up only wounded in the hospital. He got what he deserved. His parter was lucky.

Excellent story, a good reason for carry and a good deterrent for thiefs, and an excellent outcome.

Yep, I noticed that, too. The media can't resist using phrases that immediately instill fear, rather than helping people understand that innocent people's lives were protected.

 

[jbombelli]

+1 for gunnin' down the bad guy.

 

[glock2010]

this is a good reason to carry a firearmfor the good guy

 

[khickey3492]

What do you want to bet that the deceased "alleged" felon's survivors hire a bottom feeder to sue the law abiding citizen?

 

[Rookie]

Notice the last statement? Looks like we just gained a few more legally armed citizens...

 

[mike4sigs]

i dont know if it was the guy who shot the bad guy but i would guess it was !

But did you see everybody thanking him in the end!
Plus 1 for the good guy's

 

[Ziggy01]

One more reason to carry and PRACTICE on a regular basis. You never know when your going to need it.

+1 rep on the footage and you don't find stuff like that often enough especially when they interview law enforcement and they give a valid point on our rights.

 

[combat45acp]

nice, thanks for sharing!

 

[wahlspyder]

Great to finally hear about a gun owner - any gun owner in a positive light from mainstream media. Thanks for the post!
