The Armed Citizen Extra
A heroic Chicago citizen aided in saving a Cicero police officer's life when he helped police return fire on an assailant charging and firing at them. The shooter had already hit one officer four times when the armed citizen jumped into action, exiting his vehicle and shooting at the suspect. The suspect was hit once, and taken to the hospital in serious condition. (Chicago Tribune, Chicago, Ill., 09/15/2018)

November 1969
A teenager who had reportedly twice raped a neighborhood woman at knife point was seriously wounded when he returned to the same Phoenix, Ariz. area and invaded the bedroom of another intended victim, Bessie Clark, 21. As he fumbled in the darkness, she shot him with a .22 revolver. (Phoenix, Ariz., Republic)
