An armed man entered a cell phone store in Sacramento, CA and went straight towards a back office area and approached an employee.
A second employee, who was armed with a gun, came from the office with his weapon and fired one shot at the armed man.
The suspect was shot and died of his injuries.
Police say the shooting appears to be justified so far.
Store customers also approve of the actions of the employee with one saying, “It’s sad he had to die, but people have to protect themselves. What else can they do? They’ve been robbed before. If they have a legal permit to carry a gun, they should use it.”

Let me think…..I enter a business armed with a gun, and I get shot……seems reasonable!!
Robbing a cell phone store gets second place in the stupid crook awards, choosing a well armed and willing to shoot crooks cell phone store gets first prize, a 9mm trophy, to keep.
they should recomend that stores post signs that state”store employees and customers are to be considered armed and ready to defend themselves with deadly force” and include a picture of a figure with bullet holes in it!!!
As a retired police officer in Kentucky and a firearms instructor, I see no legal compelling reason to warn the scumbag, commiting a felony while armed, that his actions could result in his death. He chose his path, let his suffer the consequences.
Exactly.
And the employee will probably be fired for violating the company’s no gun policy.
Yeah, we’ve seen that before.
the bad guys should fear the legal end of a 45 !
video had bars on the windows of the store = black neighborhood.
Bullet cheaper than having to house in jail or death row for years!
