The Armed Citizen Extra
A Walgreen worker in Tulsa, Okla., greeted a robber with well-aimed force when his store was held up. The worker, who possessed a state-issued concealed-carry license, shot and fatally wounded the suspect. A bystander who was grazed in the shooting was taken to a hospital. (Circa.com, Tulsa, Okla., 12/19/18)

An unidentified woman clad only in panties heard a glass door shatter in her suburban Cincinnati home. Picking up a .32 revolver, she went to investigate and encountered an intruder in the hall. She screamed and levelled the gun at the man, who fled and eluded a police search. (The Enquirer, Cincinnati, Ohio)
