Armed Texas Customer Opens Fire, Ends Knife-Wielding Bank Robber’s Criminal Career…
A bank robber’s criminal career came to a sudden and permanent halt when he pulled a knife while trying to rob a Texas bank on Aug. 31.
Police in the Dallas-area suburb of Cedar Hill, Texas, were informed of a robbery in progress at a Chase bank at around 9:00 a.m. local time, NBCDFW.com, a Dallas-area TV station, reported.
Officers arrived to find the suspected robber in the parking lot, where he had reportedly fled after being shot by a customer.
Witnesses told police that the would-be robber pulled a knife and demanded money from the bank’s employees and that the customer opened fire on the would-be robber, who fled the scene after being hit.
The suspect later succumbed to the wound at a local hospital.
“They rung out. Literally right in front of the bank,” Damien Cannon told Fox4News.com, another Dallas-area TV station, about the shots fired by the armed citizen.
Local police and the FBI are investigating the incident, with local police telling NBCDFW.com that the armed citizen remained at the bank and cooperated with authorities.
Of course he remained at the scene and cooperated, why wouldn’t he? A law abididing armed citizen shouldn’t fear protecting other people or himself. He exercised his right to defend himself and fellow man, woman and child. A armed society is a safe society. Leftist don’t want the bad guys killed off, that’s why they’re ‘gun-grabbers’. Who would cause chaos and mayhem for them if citizens cleaned up our streets. Imagine if more people carried in public. Across America, one by one, the criminals would meet their demise. I always tell people that in today’s times you should be armed to take your trash to the curb. Yes, it’s that bad. If you’ve never owned or fired a weapon, there’s plenty of place where you can go to learn to carry safely and responsibly. It’s time to stop being the victim.
