Al:Gun Beats Stick, Chief Pleased


Police Chief Chris Carden

Robbers who use clubs are very dangerous.  They often believe that they have to strike their victim to demonstrate seriousness.   In this case, the would be robber made a mistake in the victim selection process.  His victim was a CCW holder who drew his gun when threatened.   The would be robber ran off, but the armed  citizen was able to give a good description to the police, who quickly made an arrest.  From al.com: 
 "I am extremely proud of the good police work that came into play," Carden said. "They all did an outstanding job and they did it in a safe manner. I'm also extremely proud of the victim whom I spoke with today and thanked for his service."
 It is nice to see Police Chief Chris Carden, of Sylacauga praise the armed citizen for his service in making the community a safer place.   Perhaps this is a trend that will continue.   We have Sheriff Clark of Milwaukee County, in Wisconsin praising armed victims who resist, as well as Chief Craig of Detroit.

 The Chief said that the suspect, Bobby Dean Hall, 40, is in the county jail on a $20,000 bond.
