    Plenty to take away from this incident.

    For one, this thug made what looks to be like a 25ft long, well aimed, one shot, head shot.
    Secondly, hanging around after the BG threatens you with a gun?

    The second person resisted and the suspect began walking away, according to detectives. In the video, the robbery victim standing next to the store door appeared to have tried making a phone call, but that was when the suspect, off camera, shot at the victim.

    The store's glass door appears shattered while the victim collapses.

    They knew each other.


    and the shooter was a good shot.

    Vic couldn't duck very well, I'd have been long gone, which is another reason I think they knew each other .

    I doubt it was a direct hit. (Trying To find The Bright Side:doh:)




    But yeah- Standing there with your d*** hanging out in the wind= STUPID




    We've (myself & others) discussed this very thing before, many times. Anyone who says 'once they turn to walk away, you're no longer in danger because the threat is diminished' (:dunno:) needs to watch this. Yeah- I've heard that before.

    'Sorey'- but if they're still holding the gun, your life is in danger.

    Never get in a gun fight if you can avoid. sometimes a lucky shot will end it early. That's my opinion of the take home message here.

    Prime example of "if you ban guns the bad guys will still have guns", or something like that.

    You've heard of one stop shopping.
    That was one shot stopping !!!

    That was a strange incident.The guy is headed to his car,which may have had a firearm in it to defend
    himself in case BG does shoot at him in his car.But to push the store clerk back inside and then jerk away
    and stand there.Just seems really odd.I am in no means for the BG,but damm that was a good shot.

    I wouldn't call it lucky.I'm pretty sure practicing at the range had something to do with it,unlike a few
    wanna be straight shooters on here lolol..Yea I went there !!!!

    Through and through on a skull? Never shot anyone in the head. Likely/common? Would think maybe more of a glance off of the skull, a hit to the shoulder, something.

    Really hard to see exactly where on/in the head the bullet struck.

    Almost looks as if it hit the upper skull -- maybe glanced off the top of the skull and hit the glass door.
    No fun for the shootee, in any event.
    Twas a good, or lucky, shot. I'll vote for "good."

    Lesson -- Get behind cover if you decide to phone in a description of a thug or his vehicle.
