An accused car thief was shot outside a Kroger when the car owners tracked their vehicle across state lines, Kentucky police say. Police in Fort Mitchell, a Kentucky suburb of Cincinnati, said the shooting happened at the gas station area of a Kroger grocery store Tuesday, Dec. 19. The couple’s car was stolen around 6 a.m. in Cheviot, Ohio, according to WKRC. A phone was left inside the car, allowing the couple to track where it was traveling.

A call to the local police should have apprehended the thief and boyfriend. But, I was taught to respect my and your property. If you cannot defend your property, you cannot defend yourself.
This is what we pay police for. When we do not trust or even have police, then justice can be served as needed.
