NJ:Teen Gang? Surprized by Armed Citzen

Off duty officers are no longer acting as agents of the government.  They are armed citizens.

NEWARK — An off-duty federal agent who was being robbed drew his gun and shot two of the alleged robbers early this morning on a street in the Ironbound, authorities said.

The Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent was accosted by several people on Van Buren Street around 1:30 a.m. this morning, said Thomas Fennelly, the county’s chief assistant prosecutor. The ICE agent was struck with fists and hands by multiple people, he added.

The victim drew and discharged his weapon, striking two of the suspects, Fennelly said.
