Why don’t we hear or read more of these in the news media?
I personally would rather hear that someone prevented a crime then read a story that someone died because no one was there to help them. Like the police chief said, you can do 3 things after you dial 911. 1. Beg for mercy, 2. Hide under the bed, 3. Get a weapon and protect yourself.
