TN: BB Gun Beats Knife in Robbery Attempt



According to police, officers responded to a robbery at the Citgo on South Perkins Road just after 3 a.m. The clerk told officers that a man came into the store, pulled out a knife, and demanded money.

The clerk was stocking shelves at the time. According to the police report, he then went to the office, grabbed a BB gun, and fired a shot at the suspect, hitting him in the leg.

FYI:

Bundy wildlife refuge occupation: How the trial breaks the legal mold

The trial of Ammon and Ryan Bundy and others for their armed occupation of Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon will begin Wednesday.

September 7, 2016

Seven anti-government activists, including brothers Ammon and Ryan Bundy, are scheduled to go to trial this week for their role in taking over Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon – a trial that could be nearly as unorthodox as the crime itself.

The armed occupation of the wildlife refuge began on Jan. 2, with at least a dozen men taking part in the protest against federal control of public land in the West. The seven defendants are charged with conspiracy to impede federal officers, to which they pleaded not guilty in February, and possession of firearms in a federal facility.

Jury selection begins Wednesday, with court documents indicating that the defense will use some unusual tactics.
