Not exactly sure if this is the right place to post, or if it's been posted before, but thought I'd share.

We've had several "criminal shot by citizen/victim" stories here recently, makes me happy to know that the people of my extended community are fighting back. :)

It was brought up as an "oh by the way" in a pre-existing thread; not sure if the mods will want to merge this, or let it stay as a standalone. I could see reasons for going either way.
