this store is by my home and i have been in there 100's of times
The 70-year-old clerk, who is a Vietnam veteran, repeatedly told the armed intruder — whom police identified as David Michael Malinowski of Argentine Township — to "get on the floor."
"Get down on the ground! Get down on the (expletive) ground like I told you to!" the clerk shouts excitedly. "I've killed people before; you think this is going to bother me? I'll take your leg out and I'll kill you."
Fred the clerk said he shot "full of bullet holes" in an effort to stop the robber.
Fred knocked the robber's weapon —which turned out to be a starter pistol — away, pulled out a handgun and ordered the would-be robber to hit the ground.
On the tape, Fred repeatedly orders the robber to get on the ground and tells him multiple times that he is not afraid to shoot the man dead.
The sound of four pops can be heard on the tape — presumably the gunshots.
"I just fired five shots. I fired five shots into his car," Fred said.
Fred goes on to say, "I was only forced to use my gun when he had a gun on me. He tried to grab my gun. ... I just took his car out. I didn't want to kill him."
Prosecutor David Morse said he will not bring charges against the store clerk.
"Under the law, you have the right of self-defense, and you may use that level of force that you are being met with," the prosecutor said. "If someone is pointing a gun, then you can use a gun to defend yourself. If someone is coming at you with a rake, you can't fire a gun."

  • O'll school.....

  • Great job

  • I think Prosecutor David Morse does not understand the law of self defense... A person with a rake can kill you just the same as a person with a gun. It just might take longer... What commie state/city do you live in where a prosecutor would say something like that?

  • its ok to kill people who try and be "criminal". If your gonna be a badass, better shoot to kill and then take what u want, but these faggots these days are no where NEAR the level of thuggery that once was in the wild west 1880-1916 days so PROPS to those who eliminate these idiot wannabe rogues.

  • Old fuck holds people hostage and shoots one, no surprise from a Vietnam vet. Go over seas and kill women and kids and commit all sorts of rape, then come home and think you are above the law. He protected worthless property though, that's very libertarian of him. Property over life.

  • The person on the phone is annoying as fuck and completely useless.

  • one for the seinors

  • epic store clerk !
