CCL holder shoots, kills man trying to break into West Side apartment

CHICAGO (WGN) – A man was shot and killed by a concealed carry license holder while trying to break into a West Side apartment Saturday morning, according to Chicago police.

Sources close to the investigation said a 33-year-old man was kicking the back door of an apartment, threatening a woman and her children inside. The resident called police and a relative, a 28-year-old woman, who was able to get there quickly.

Police said the incident happened in the 3400 block of West Monroe Street just before 7 a.m. Saturday in East Garfield Park.

The man allegedly continued trying to get into the apartment, breaking a bedroom window and threatening to kill the family inside, sources told WGN-TV. The 28-year-old relative, who has a valid CCL, fired toward the man, hitting him multiple times.

According to police, the suspect in the attempted break-in was transported to Mt. Sinai Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The CCL holder was taken to Area Four for questioning, and no charges have been announced.

Police said the incident appears to be domestic-related.

Machete-wielding robber shot dead at Jasper County barbershop

A man was killed in an apparent self-defense shooting as he tried to rob an employee at a Ridgeland barbershop Thursday morning, according to police.

The person who shot him and three others inside the Main Street business were uninjured.

The suspected robber, identified as 55-year-old Ridgeland resident Curtis Edward Scott, was fatally shot by an employee of Jay’s Barber Shop after entering the business through the back door around 10:30 a.m., wearing a ski mask and carrying a machete.

As Scott appeared to raise the machete, one barber grabbed his pistol and fired one round that struck Scott in the chest, according to the Ridgeland Police Department.

Scott fled out the back exit but collapsed beside his vehicle that was parked behind the building, said Lt. Daniel Litchfield of the RPD. He was pronounced dead shortly after.

The shooting seemed to be an act of self-defense based on officers’ initial findings, Litchfield said, although the circumstances of the incident remained under investigation. Police obtained the barbershop’s surveillance footage and interviewed the four witnesses, including one customer, who all provided similar accounts of the incident.

Just before 7:45 p.m., several people were shot in the 7100 block of International Boulevard at the Cash 4 Gold pawn shop, according to the police officers’ union.

According to the preliminary investigation, individuals armed with weapons entered the pawn shop and an exchange of gunfire took place between these individuals and the workers inside the establishment, the department said.

Robber shot by bystander, 2nd suspect killed in Dania Beach: BSO

A robbery attempt in Dania Beach left one suspect injured and another one dead on Saturday night, deputies said.

According to the Broward Sheriff’s Office, at around 6:52 p.m., deputies received reports of a shooting near the 600 block of Stirling Road.

The driver was taken to the hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries.

His identity has not been released.

Deputies have not said if the bystander who fired those shots will be charged.

Not so strangely, because the Israeli government is scared that their Arab citizens would arm themselves and go off on their own murder sprees, there is no RKBA, and possession of guns by the general population has always been severely restricted, the Israeli government apparently having decided that a few dead Jewish citizens are better than possibly more dead from an internal Arab uprising.


Israel Bus Attack: Armed Civilians Helped ‘Neutralize’ Terrorist Killers

By Dave Workman

An unknown number of “armed civilians” is being credited with helping “neutralize” two terrorists who opened fire at a Jerusalem bus stop Monday morning, perhaps underscoring the benefit of armed citizens who can fight back.

Various news agencies are reporting the tragedy, which so far has claimed six lives and left at least a dozen wounded. The Times of Israel is reporting that the Palestinian terrorists were residents of the Wet Bank. They opened fire on people waiting at a bus stop. An off-duty soldier immediately returned fire, and so did “a number of civilians.”

Fox News’ report only indicated one armed citizen was involved, but the Associated Press is also indicating more than one armed civilian was involved.

The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms says the incident “underscores the importance of an armed citizenry.” Continue reading “”

Mother with baby fatally shoots suspected home invader in Joliet

JOLIET, Ill. (WLS) — A mother with a baby fatally shot a suspected home invader in the south suburbs on Friday night, police said.

Joliet police said officers responded to a report of a home invasion in the 7000-block of Hadrian Drive around 10:30 p.m.

Police said the woman, armed with a gun, heard someone break into her home. That’s when she took her child and hid in a bedroom closet on the second floor.

Police believe that when the suspect entered that bedroom, the woman opened fire, striking him in the head. The suspect was pronounced dead on the scene.

Responding officers found the woman and her child in the adjacent bedroom, police said.

The suspect was wearing gloves and had a screwdriver at the time. The woman did not know who he was, and his identity has not yet been released.

Found, from two weekends ago…

Kentucky Attorney Defends Himself Against Masked Intruders

An attorney living in an upscale suburb of Louisville, Kentucky is speaking out after his home was invaded over the weekend, forcing him to fire a shot in self-defense.

The armed citizen spoke to Louisville television station WDRB about his encounter with the intruders last Saturday evening, though he understandably wanted to remain anonymous while recounting his run-in with the masked men.

“I was in bed at 6:30, believe it or not, and the dog started barking. … They were barking in an unusual manner,” he said. “So I reached into the drawer of the table next to my bed and pulled out my .44 Magnum pistol and I went out the entrance to the bedroom.”

That’s when he came face-to-face with two masked intruders in the middle of his home.

“And I said, ‘What’s going on?’ And they turned around and took off, and I tried to shoot ’em,” he said. “I missed but I tried.”

The suspects escaped through a back door, jumped over a rear railing and disappeared into a wooded area near a nearby park. A man walking his dogs told the homeowner he was nearly run over by the men, who were speaking Spanish and fled the scene in a waiting SUV.

The homeowner believes the suspects were part of an organized group — possibly a transnational burglary ring — that carefully scoped out the home in advance.

“Until I talked to the police and then I got a better idea of their M.O., I knew they watched for houses they thought were vacant,” he said. “There’s no doubt they had my house under surveillance for a period of time … to establish there was nothing going on inside.”

He said the suspects were dressed in dark sweat suits and wore masks. They didn’t steal anything, but he believes they were targeting high-end valuables that can’t easily be traced.

“They go to the master bedroom and steal property — money, jewelry, clothes, shoes, things that are of value but are not readily identifiable,” he said. “They don’t take guns, because guns have serial numbers and can be traced.”

The armed citizen says that after speaking with others in the neighborhood, he believes that this crew has been operating in the area for at least two years and is responsible for the theft of at least $100,000 in belongings.

He’s also using his own experience to encourage others to “have a plan” if their home is invaded, including having “some kind of protection” as well as keeping doors locked and equipping their home with an alarm system.

Those are all smart suggestions, but I would also add that in some states, the armed attorney might not have been able to access his pistol before the masked intruders walked in to his bedroom. Gun control activists love to impose one-size-fits-all storage requirements on firearm owners that require them to keep their guns locked up at all times unless they’re actively being carried or are “under the control” of an authorized user, even if there are no kids in the home.

Kentucky, thankfully, doesn’t have a mandate like that in place, but if he lived in a state like Massachusetts or New York he would have been required to keep his pistol locked up while he slept or else face fines or even time behind bars. I’m all in favor of gun owners storing their firearms in a way that they’re off limits to young children or any other household member who doesn’t need access, but this incident is a chilling reminder that mandating how firearms must be stored can put residents at risk if intruders decide to pay them a visit.

Police: Man fatally stabbed Elkton teen in self-defense; no charges warranted

ELKTON [Maryland] — Police and prosecutors have elected not to file criminal charges against a one-armed man who fatally stabbed a 14-year-old boy on the street of an Elkton neighborhood last month — concluding that he acted in self-defense while attacked by the teen and several companions — including one who struck the victim multiple times with a shovel.    [Ya think?]

Cecil County State’s Attorney James Dellymer provided that update Thursday afternoon during a press conference at the Railroad Avenue headquarters of the Elkton Police Department, which has been conducting the ongoing investigation.

On Tuesday, two days before the press conference, police privately told the mother of Jordin Collins — the teen who was fatally stabbed — they had concluded self-defense and that they would not be filing charges against the stabber, a man in his 30s with an amputated left arm. Authorities are identifying him only as “Ty.”

Read the whole thing. The deadhead’s friends and family treat him like some sort of hero, and complain about intended victims being armed.


Dad of 20 was shot and killed when he tried to rob someone getting off the bus, cops say
D’Anthony Reaves, 44, had 12 biological children and eight stepchildren

An Atlanta father of 20 was fatally shot last month while allegedly attempting an armed robbery, police say.

On July 19, D’Anthony Reaves, 44, was killed outside the Greyhound bus station on Forsyth Street around 5:30 a.m. He was shot twice in the face and once in the arm, according to police.

In a Wednesday update, Atlanta homicide detectives said their investigation determined the case should be classified as a felon killed by a private citizen. Police said Reaves was in the middle of an armed robbery when he was shot.

Reaves was shot by someone getting off a bus, his family told WSB-TV. The Independent has contacted Atlanta police for comment.

Reaves was a father to 12 biological children and eight stepchildren, ranging from ages 10 to 31. Ten of them attended his funeral at North Avenue Missionary Baptist Church in Atlanta on August 2, which boasted a line of mourners stretching to the parking lot.

“Seeing everybody come out as one big community was really nice, and we really appreciate all the extra support because we’re gonna need it,” Sha’Miracle Brown, one of Reaves’ daughters, told Fox 5 Atlanta, adding that their father was well known across Atlanta communities.

“My dad was like a crazy dancer, but I will always remember the music standpoint. Because some of us make music, all of us are musically inclined, and some of us play instruments. So my dad passed that musical gene down to all of us,” Brown said.

“He loved his kids. You could ask anyone, any single person, and they would say we were his pride and joy. I don’t think there’s a room we could walk into that he did not mention us or our accomplishments or our accolades.”

Reaves’ family plans to start a foundation to support his children and help fathers leave the streets and rebuild their lives.

“We’re fixing to open up the D’Anthony Reaves foundation so we’ll be able to serve his kids so they’ll be taken care of,” Deoinetea Hightower Reaves’ brother told the outlet. “We got the Power for the Fathers represented for him as well, where we help the fathers get off the street and get their lives back together.”

Hightower added that he is pushing Greyhound to end its policy allowing guns across state lines and urging Georgia Governor Brian Kemp to tighten gun laws to keep firearms away from young people.

Further details about the shooting were not available.

Homeowner fatally shoots armed intruder in Kanawha County; investigation underway

Law enforcement were on Lick Branch Road in Kanawha County for most of Friday after they said a man fatally shot an armed intruder on his property.

“It is very scary,” said Mindy Nichols who near where the shooting happened. “You’re out here in the country. People are kind and then this happens. I don’t know. It just kind of startles you.”

It was just after 12:30 p.m. when police said the homeowner arrived to his property where he was met with the armed suspect who did not live there inside of his home.

“That individual came to the door and met the homeowner at the doorway and the individual had several weapons on him,” said Sgt. Joshua Lester with the Kanawha County Sheriffs Department. “A fight ensued between the two and the homeowner pulled a firearm and fatally shot the intruder that was in his home.”

Police said the homeowner was working on his property, which is not his primary residence when he was met with an intruder on the porch who was armed with a baseball bat and a knife. Police said the struggle moved from the porch down into the yard, where the homeowner pulled a gun and shot the other man.

“We’ll have to kind of retrace all the steps. They’ll have to find where the firearm was fired,” Lester said. “They’ll have to find all of the discharge from that and any evidence that pertains to that, the weapons that were involved. They’ll look at that. They’ll look at the placements of where that evidence fell versus injuries to the victim as well as the suspect.”

CCL holder kills gunman in Harvey mass shooting; 2nd deadly shooting could be connected: officials

HARVEY, Ill. (WLS) — A Concealed-Carry License holder fatally shot one of two gunmen who injured a young child and four others in south suburban Harvey on Saturday night, officials said.

Officials believe another deadly shooting, which happened on Sunday morning, may be connected to Saturday night’s mass shooting.

On Sunday, crime tape and evidence markers are the only signs left of Saturday night’s shooting, which happened around 8 p.m. during a house party on the corner of 145th and Des Plaines. Neighbors described the scene to ABC7.

“It was chaotic. A lot of police. A lot of ambulances. A lot of people laying on the ground. It was a shame to have to see something like that,” said neighbor Terrence Simpkins. “It was a sad moment for this community here. And more work needs to be done.”

Two armed men opened fire at the gathering, injuring five of the guests. But it did not end there. A CCL holder who was present returned fire, killing one of the suspects and injuring the other.

A 4-year-old boy suffered non-life-threatening injuries and is listed in stable condition.

Four other party attendees also suffered gunshot wounds. They were taken to local hospitals in stable condition.

The suspect killed was pronounced dead on the scene.

The injured suspect was taken to a hospital in stable condition, and is now in police custody.

While police initially believed Saturday’s shooting to be an isolated incident, saying there was no further threat to the community, they are now investigating an early Sunday morning shooting, which happened in the 200-block of Calumet Boulevard, as a possible act of retaliation.

An unidentified man was found dead inside a minivan. One neighbor, who did not want to show her face, spoke with ABC7.

“I woke up, and it sounded like bullets were hitting the garbage cans… I heard, at least 40, 38, I don’t know, a lot of rounds,” she said. “I ran downstairs and grabbed, just everyone away from windows, just threw them to the floor.”

While the search for the gunman in Sunday morning’s fatal shooting continues, a spokesperson for the Harvey Police Department said investigators are actively following leads and witnesses are cooperating.

Further information was not immediately available.

Mother Who Shot Home Intruder In Self-Defense Won’t Be Charged

A Memphis mom won’t face charges after she shot an intruder who broke into her home, per Black Enterprise.

Video of the break-in showed the mother, who remains unidentified, retreating into a room and asking three intruders to leave her home. The mother informed the intruders that she had children in the house with her before she opened fire against one of the women who broke into her home.

21-year-old Kimari Burnham, 21-year-old Nala Kelley, and 22-year-old Dejwan Payne were arrested and charged in connection with the break-in. Burnham, who was shot, was listed in critical condition following the intrusion.

The Shelby County Sheriff’s Office said authorities responded to the scene after receiving reports of a shooting at the woman’s home. Three people broke into the residence at roughly 10 p.m. on the night of the incident. When police arrived, they found Burnham with an apparent gunshot wound. Officials believe the incident was domestic.

All three suspects were charged with aggravated burglary. Burnham and Kelley are also facing additional charges of misdemeanor vandalism.

After collecting evidence from the scene, investigators determined that the Memphis mother acted in self-defense in the shooting of Burnham.

“In Tennessee, you can defend your home with deadly force. So once they cross that threshold and they’re inside your house, that’s enough to assume there’s a presumption made that they’re there to do you harm,” defense attorney Brandon Hall said in a statement. He also stated that the same law applies even if the intruders did not have a weapon with them.

Florida: Armed Citizen Saves Woman From Knife-Wielding Attacker In Mall Parking Lot

Anti-gun advocates just can’t bring themselves to admit that armed citizens use their firearms to save themselves from attackers millions of times a year. That fact runs directly against their philosophy and beliefs.

Another thing they’ll never admit is that armed citizens frequently save other people from attackers, using their firearms to protect their unarmed neighbors from bad guys intent on harming them. Good guys with guns are called “good guys” for a reason—they know that helping others who are under attack is a noble endeavor and are often willing to take the risk to do so.

Such was the case recently in a mall parking lot in Orlando, Florida. According to a report from Clickorlando.com, on July 14, an armed man drew his gun and forced another man, who was stabbing a woman with a knife, to stop the attack and flee the scene.

According to local police, security cameras showed that 41-year-old Alinton John and the woman arrived in the parking lot just before 10 p.m., talking for about half an hour, and then got into John’s vehicle. About 10 minutes later, the woman can be seen running toward the mall’s front entrance.

According to the police report, a witness told investigators that he and some family members were standing in the parking lot “when they saw a female ‘all stabbed up’ exit a red Tesla and heard her screaming.” The witness said that he then drew his concealed pistol, racked a round into the chamber, and pointed it at John.

Deputes determine shooting in Keithville was in self-defense

KEITHVILLE, La. (KSLA) – Deputies responded to reports of a shooting Friday morning (June 27).

It happened not long after 11 a.m. on Stagecoach Road just off Mansfield Road near Drag Strip Road. More than a dozen units from the sheriff’s office responded.

Officials with the Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office say one person, identified as Joseph Whitaker, was shot in the upper body. His injuries are none-life-threatening, according to CPSO.

Whitaker was initially transported to Willis Knighton South by a private vehicle and was later transferred to Ochsner LSU Health.

Investigators arrived at the scene and determined that the victim had attempted to leave a heated verbal altercation by getting into his truck. However, Whitaker went up to his vehicle and began hitting him in the head.

The shooting happened not long after 11 a.m. on Stagecoach Road just off Mansfield Road near Drag Strip Road.

While the victim was being attacked, he pulled out a gun, in fear for his life and fired two shots at Whitaker. After firing, the victim left the scene but returned moments later when deputies arrived.

Following the investigation, it was determined that the victim acted in self-defense. Whitaker was issued a summons for simple battery at the hospital.
