Memphis Police say a man was walking up to Lamar Corner Grocery when a man tried to rob him. The victim shot and killed the suspect.
When it comes to a case of self-defense, you have to think fast.
"When your life is threatened I think everybody would agree that is your first priority is to protect your life," Tom Henderson said.
Henderson is an Assistant District Attorney in Shelby County. He told FOX13 the District Attorney’s office is familiar with self-defense cases. People fight back against criminals who are attacking them. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
