Armed Citizen® Today
In Tulsa, Okla., on June 18, two people reportedly attempted to rob a man outside a convenience store. One of them was armed with a knife and one with a gun, but their intended victim was also armed. He was able to draw and fire one shot, striking one of the alleged assailants in the head. That suspect ran across the street before collapsing; he was transported to the hospital in critical condition. The other suspect fled and was still being sought at the time of reporting.

Legal secretary Diane Sutter was working late in a Fort Walton Beach, Fla., law office when she saw a man walking in the hallway. She placed a handgun on her lap, and when the intruder approached, she told him to leave. The man made some threatening statements and, when he touched her, she fired. The man tried to flee but collapsed in the hall. The wounded suspect and an accomplice were charged with burglary. (The News Journal; Pensacola, Fla.)
