“The deceased individual had his [gun] in his hand, waving it. The customer actually had one in a holster covered up. We’re in the process of checking on permits and all of that. To have a gun concealed, you need a permit. To carry it open carry, you don’t. But you have a sign in a place of business, that’s letting you know that the people inside that place of business do not want guns in there,” the sheriff said.
OK. So the store’s sign didn’t deter the bad guy. Duh! And, the hero, who may have saved lives – including his own – is under investigation to see if he had legal permission to defend himself and others. Yeah, and don’t forget he may have violated the civil rights of the gun-waving guy, too.
Details of a thwarted robbery, and whatever else would have ensued, are here…
