Detroit police believe a concealed pistol license holder was justified when he shot and critically injured a 27-year-old man, who was acting violently in Detroit about 11 p.m. Sunday.
The 27-year-old man who was shot is now in critical condition. The 23-year-old shooter was questioned and released by police.
The shooter witnessed the 27-year-old having a fight with a man and woman sitting in a pickup near Lyndon and Stansbury in Detroit; the fight escalated, the man used an object to break a window on the pickup and the driver drove off.
The CPL holder approached and ordered the man to stop and told him to "not get any closer," according to Dante Freeman of the Detroit Police Department Media Relations Department. |

This guy didn't have the authority to order the perpetrator to "freeze" at gunpoint after-the-fact.
Charges are coming, no doubt. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
To have no proud monarch driving over me with his gilt coaches; nor his host of excise-men and tax-gatherers insulting and robbing me; but to be my own master, my own prince and sovereign, gloriously preserving my national dignity, and pursuing my true happiness; planting my vineyards, and eating their luscious fruits; and sowing my fields, and reaping the golden grain: and seeing millions of brothers all around me, equally free and happy as myself. This, sir, is what I long for. -- General Francis Marion, American War of Independence, Georgetown, SC [Source: 'Marion, The Life of Gen. Francis Marion' by M. L. Weems, Ch.18] |
