Jewelry salesman fires on two armed robbers Excerpted from article originally published here
as: By PAUL LEIGHTON When two men attacked and robbed a jewelry salesman last week in Peabody, the
victim fired eight shots at the bad guys before they got away. Police are still investigating the Feb. 13 attack in which a 56-year-old
gemologist was pistol-whipped and robbed by two men in the parking lot of
Martoni Jewelers on Route 1 in Peabody. The victim reportedly fired off eight rounds of his 9mm handgun as his
attackers fled, blowing out the windows of parked cars. The robbers fired back a
single shot. No one was injured in the shooting. The robbers escaped and are
still at large. Police have not revealed the exact circumstances of the shooting, and local
firearms experts caution that it's difficult to judge an incident without
knowing all of the facts. But in the wake of the episode, and the frightening notion of eight bullets
whizzing through a busy public area in broad daylight, experts emphasized the
need for gun owners to know the guidelines that govern the use of deadly force. NOTICE: In accordance with Title 17 U.S.C. Section 107, this material is
