Okay you anti gun extremists....this gun owner showed restraint and drove off an attacker, savagely kicking an unconcious woman in the head.....he stopped the attack by spraying the guy with mace. The guy left...and came back with a gun and shot the hero. Sadly for the bad guy the hero also had a gun.....
Homeless man with a gun stops suspect from beating unconscious teen
But the ex-boyfriend approached the woman for a second time, pulled her out of the car and began kicking and punching her with such force that it knocked her to the ground. As the woman laid there unconscious, the suspect continued to assault her, repeatedly kicking her in the head, and it was at that point DeLeon knew he had to do something.
“I couldn’t just stand there and do nothing,” DeLeon told reporters. He was armed with both mace and a handgun, but chose to use the less lethal of the two – during the first attack, that is. DeLeon said he sprayed the woman’s attacker in the face with his mace, and although it stopped the suspect from continuing to beat the unconscious woman, it also further infuriated him.
“They drove off and he said something like, ‘I’m going to come back for you,’” DeLeon said. “And he did.”
A few minutes later, after the teen was already in an ambulance and on her way to the hospital, the white Lexus occupied by the suspect returned to the parking lot and the suspect opened fire on DeLeon, striking him once in the arm. But unbeknown to the suspect, DeLeon wasn’t just carrying mace, he was also armed with a legally owned handgun. The man returned fire toward the suspect, who immediately fled the parking lot.
DeLeon, who was called a Good Samaritan by the Fresno County Sheriff’s Office, was transported to the hospital to receive treatment for the gunshot wound. Both he and the teen victim are expected to make a full recovery.
Authorities later caught up with the suspect on a nearby highway, but he was lost after speeds reached more than 100 miles per hour. The Lexus was later found abandoned.
So.....this guy stopped a criminal shooting at him. He didn't kill the guy, and may not have injured him....but using a gun he stopped the guy....
He showed restraint....he had mace and a gun and used the mace first.....only when the asshole came back and tried to murder him did he draw his weapon and defend himself...
Once again, an American with a gun stopped a violent criminal...showing remarkable restraint and saving the life of the woman.....and then his own life because he had a gun.
