Or if they do, they don't do it very well. One would think an armed robber would plan a heist, but it never seems to happen. Case in point is a robber in Ohio who gets caught on video climbing into drive-through window of a convenience store. A clerk sent him back out with a gunshot.\n\n[in_content post=\"95116\" alignment=\"align-left\" \/]\n\nWFMJ<\/a> reports the incident happened June 24 in Warren at a Pit Stop just before midnight. Employees were getting ready to close, when a man tried to climb through the drive-through window. Video surveillance shows a man dressed in black with a mask walk up to window and force it open. He then pulls a gun from his waistband and begins climbing through the window.\n\nA clerk inside sees the suspect and grabs a gun kept under the register. He quickly racks the slide and proceeds to pie the window, and even sends a round in the general direction of the suspect. General direction because the time codes shows the suspect took off the moment he saw the clerk, and was nowhere near the window when the clerk fired. Police brought in a K9 unit to track the suspect, but were unsuccessful. Employees believe the suspect thought the store had already closed, which is why he tried to enter through the window instead of the front door.\nWas Family Dollar Employee Considering the 21-Foot Rule?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Be Careful Little Caesars Employee, Guns are For Saving Lives<\/h3>\nMost gun owners would probably agree with the employee's actions. And in most areas of the country, where guns<\/a> aren't actually blamed for the act, they are fine. However, folks need to remember that circumstances can change in the middle of defensive situation. Some prosecutors look for any reason to persecute gun owners for society's failings. It's not the fault of the tool, but some believe otherwise.\n\nThe potential problem is that once an attacker breaks off, a person's life is no longer in danger. However, there are so many aspects here, that they can't possibly all be listed. Was the person retreating to a better fighting location? Was he or she still a danger to others? It should be said, though, that chasing a robber into a parking lot isn't the best idea. Also, the Little Caesars employee fired several shots and only one hit its intended target. Those rounds went somewhere, and thankfully didn't hit any innocent.

Ohio Clerk Has Decent Moves<\/h3>\nWhile video shows that the shot was unnecessary, this clerk handled this situation quite well. His situational awareness quickly picked up on the danger, and he didn't panic. He quickly and confidently headed to where the gun was stored. Of course, racking the slide gets into a different discussion on keeping one in the chamber, but it doesn't take away from his skills; it might be the owner's or manager's gun.\n\nIn any case, watch how this clerk stays back and quickly pies the window. This is standard training for covering corners, doors and windows. Makes one think this clerk has had some training<\/a>, but not too much considering the move across the window. The shot can be explained as nerves and the illusions of darkness. He saw something that made him think he needed to fire.","post_title":"VIDEO: Ohio Clerk Fires at Robber Climbing in Drive-Through Window","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"ohio-clerk-fires-at-robber","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-05-31 10:37:05","post_modified_gmt":"2023-05-31 10:37:05","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.dev.athlonoutdoors.com\/2019\/06\/28\/ohio-clerk-fires-at-robber\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":93654,"post_author":"351","post_date":"2019-06-17 08:10:24","post_date_gmt":"2019-06-17 12:10:24","post_content":"Last Thursday, a man walked into Birdie\u2019s Food and Fuel with a shirt over his face and a gun in his hand. The alleged robber went up to the counter, pointed the gun and demanded money. However, this happened in the Pelican State, so one Louisiana store clerk also had a gun and he quickly turned the tables.\n\n[in_content post=\"114488\" alignment=\"align-left\" \/]\n\nThis robbery attempt actually happened fairly early, according to NOLA.com, with incident starting around 8:30 a.m. Police identified the suspect as Darnell Lee. Surveillance video shows Lee, dressed in a dark, hooded sweatshirt with a red shirt over his face, pointing a gun at something behind the counter. That's when, however, another clerk drew and fired, hitting Lee in the neck.\n\nAuthorities transported Lee to the local hospital in critical condition. There have been no more reports on his condition; potential charges have also not been announced. St. John the Baptist Parish Sheriff\u2019s Office deputies continue to investigate, and will turn over their results to the prosecutor's office for review. It does not look like the clerk will face charges in the incident; he protected a store and its employees.\n
Louisiana Store Clerk Understood Accuracy<\/h3>\nBeing in the South, Louisiana has some pretty good gun laws; most Southern states lean heavily toward gun rights. A lot of stores, however, don't allow employees to carry concealed; it doesn't look as if this is one of those stores. Of course, the name makes one think it might be locally owned. In any case, none of the news reports state that the employee lost his job.\n\nThis store clerk also understands how to use the sights<\/a>, as the report mention only one shot. However, he might want to start concentrating on center mass. Of course, the head, neck and upper chest might have been when the clerk could see.","post_title":"Louisiana Store Clerk Shoots Armed Robber in Neck","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"louisiana-store-clerk-shoots-armed-robber-in-neck","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-05-31 10:37:15","post_modified_gmt":"2023-05-31 10:37:15","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.dev.athlonoutdoors.com\/2019\/06\/17\/louisiana-store-clerk-shoots-armed-robber-in-neck\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":93916,"post_author":"351","post_date":"2019-05-16 06:00:04","post_date_gmt":"2019-05-16 10:00:04","post_content":"
