Citizen w/ CCW Stops Robbery

"The family members of a robbery suspect that held a store employee at gunpoint in Alabama are lashing out at the Good Samaritan who shot him and stopped the robbery.

 

Adric White, 18, was shot five times after he allegedly tried to hold up a Family Dollar store in Mobile on Nov. 12.

 

FOX10 spoke exclusively to both the unnamed Good Samaritan and the family members of White. They’re livid that their son was shot while pointing a gun in someone’s face.

 

“If [the customer's] life was not in danger, if no one had a gun up to him, if no one pointed a gun at him – what gives him the right to think that it’s okay to just shoot someone?” a relative, who wished to remain anonymous, told FOX10. “You should have just left the store and went wherever you had to go in your car or whatever.”

 

But when the suspect pulled out a gun at about 5:30 p.m., the Good Samaritan did too.

 

“He had the gun to his head. He had him on his knees,” said the Good Samaritan, who wished to remain anonymous. “I drew my gun on him and I said ‘Hey don’t move.’ At that point he swung around and before he had a chance to aim the gun at me I fired. I didn’t want to shoot him.”

 

The man shot White five times. He was taken to USA Medical Center, where he remains in police custody.

 

The local news station had previously interviewed White’s parents, but they called later demanding that the video not be aired.

White was out of jail on bond after previously robbing The Original Oyster House at gunpoint just a little over a month before he robbed the Family Dollar. Accomplice Tavoris Moss, 19, was also arrested in the Family Dollar robbery.

 

“[Criminals] tend to think that they are the only ones with guns,” the Good Samaritan told the station. “I’ve been legally carrying my firearm for a little over four years now, and thank God I’ve never had to use it until, of course, last night. It just goes to show it’s good to have a concealed carry. You never know when your going to need it.”

 

Police said that the Good Samaritan who opened fire was justified and broke no laws."

 

 

 

 

I can't believe the kids parents were seriously saying that the guy should have just walked out of the store and went to his car even though he had a gun pointed at the Clerk. Thats whats fucking wrong with people these days... Instead of accepting that there kid got shot because he had a gun to a clerk, then tried to turn it on the CCW Citizen and got shot... Dont say the citizen should of left, the damn kid shouldnt of been out robbing places at gunpoint...

 

What do you guys think about this?

I can believe it. Listen to them...sound like some of America's finest and most intelligent :rolleyes:

 

My only complaint is that the guy who shot the kid needs more training on proper placement. 5 shots and not dead....WOW. I suppose in his defense he had some serious Adrenalin and nervousness....but still...

This was a years ago. Your links are dead from the news station too. I have been seeing this posted a few places in the last few weeks. Not sure why it's coming up again.
