It bears repeating
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Moment customer shoots and kills robber who held up Houston restaurant with fake gun: Cops search for vigilante who fired eight bullets into thief's back and one 'execution-style' into his head
  • The customer, who police are now trying to track down, shot the man before taking back all the stolen good and returning them to fellow patrons

  • Pedro Lopez, owner of the taqueria, said he and his employees are still in shock

  • The deceased robber's identity has not yet been released by police

  • Police have not filed any charges - and just want to speak to the customer
Uh huh. Police don't file charges, DA's do. He'd be wise to stay away

#2  I concur. Stay away. At least make them look for you. And say absolutely NOTHING if they find you.

#1  The robber had poor weapons handling if it was real. One shot and it would have flown out of his hand. The other gentlemen utilized proper gun handling by using both hands.
