BIGDEESUL Posted July 26, 2014 at 07:16 PM Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 at 07:16 PM Heard from a friend on FB that they were at the intersection when it happened. Can't find any news about it, but I'll drive by in an hour and post pics if any thing's going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriots & Tyrants Posted July 26, 2014 at 08:25 PM Share Posted July 26, 2014 at 08:25 PM A lot of DGU's never make the news at all, some when they do only end up in small local papers for a day or two. I was shocked how many DGU's I read about in my former home of Gainesville FL; if all I did was read the Orlando Sentinel and watch WESH I'd of never even heard of them at all. But by still reading the local paper almost every day there seems to be about one every month or so. I have been keeping my eye on all the usual suspects but so far no news coverage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGDEESUL Posted July 26, 2014 at 08:48 PM Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 at 08:48 PM I work right around the corner from there. Stopped by, the AT&T store on rt83 and Cicero is supposedly where it happened. The store is closed with a sign on the door stating they won't be open until Monday, so something definitely happened. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/27/unu2y2e6.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slappy00 Posted July 26, 2014 at 09:56 PM Share Posted July 26, 2014 at 09:56 PM TO be honest im surprised it took this long before a DGU situation happened with a metropolitan this big, and so many folks now with CCLs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one I know about happened in a gangway on the owner's property, so that *technically* wasn't really something that need a CCL, not sure about the other one, when did that happen?

BIGDEESUL Posted July 27, 2014 at 04:02 PM Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 at 04:02 PM Lol, its a friend of a friend, so figured there'd be a little truth to it. I heard more, supposedly there were shots fired, but nobody was injured. I'm guessing it's true because the store is closed, but who knows.

Bobbyjones0 Posted July 28, 2014 at 11:17 PM Share Posted July 28, 2014 at 11:17 PM I got some details on this from someone who knows a Cop in a neighboring town. I don't want to give too much info but I will say it's a good thing the media hasn't reported too much on this, the CCWer did not do the cause any favors. No one was hit though thankfully. And all the bad guys were caught. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky Two Guns Posted July 29, 2014 at 01:08 AM Share Posted July 29, 2014 at 01:08 AM Would never intervene when the police are on the scene. What a dope and I assume he was shooting at his back C'MON. Well so much for a CCL holder making us look responsible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrowningHP Posted July 29, 2014 at 01:13 AM Share Posted July 29, 2014 at 01:13 AM He didnt know the police were on the scene it's likely - but it doesnt matter. He should have been calling the cops the moment he saw a crime being committed, stayed on phone w/ 911, and kept his distance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I'm not so sure what he did was illegal. A robber running down the street with gun in hand is certainly a threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
