good thing he intervened, too bad he didnt shoot all three of them. those are tough odds though, and that takes some massive cajones for sure

Too bad for the hero that he shot them fleeing. He may get charged.

There are not to many counties in Texas that a grand jury would send down an inditment on him. Now don't qoute me but I am pretty sure that you can use deadly force to prevent harm from others. So a robber with a gun would pose a threat to anyone who came accross their path.

I am in aggreement, BG with a gun is bad news, and good on the guy who shot them.

But too many courts have ruled that if the perp is fleeing, he no longer poses a threat, armed or no.
