This one went well for law enforcement.

So far, anyway...



So I'm in the bathroom and I hear the robber screaming at the cashier demanding the goods. I look down and notice my radio isn't on me, I took it off in the car. Still had my utility belt though. I slowly open the door just enough to peek outside but I'm in a separated hallway and can't see around the corner.

I grab my tazer out of the holster and get ready to peer around the corner. I take a quick look and see two of them, one has a pistol right in the woman's face as the other one raided the register and the cigarettes. She begs for them not to shoot her, pleading not to make her children motherless.

Since there's two of them and one of me, I put my bug zapper back in its cage and pull the G17. Not stopping it now. Mind is racing, heart is pounding, sweat beading off my brow. 3..2..1..deep breath.. Go time. I step from around the corner and announce my presence, ordering the men to the robbers to stop and put their weapons on the ground.

The one taking the cigarettes drops behind the counter and hides, while the one with the gun begins to turns towards me. I squeeze my trigger and the bullet rips through his shoulder. Non fatal shot. But he's down.

The kid behind the counter stands up with his hands raised in the air. He proceeds to tell me that he didn't even want to do this but was forced by the other guy. I order him from behind the counter and place him in cuffs. I cuff the guy with a new hole in his arm and keep my gun trained on them. I use the phone behind the register to call for an ambulance and backup.

The cashier was so grateful she told me I could get free coffee and a donut anytime she's there.

It is good to be lucky once and a while. Too bad he did not put the bullet through the gunman's head. Now we have to house and feed him for many years to come.

Hadn't heard about this on every ... single ... network so am I safe in assuming the Caucasian nature of the perps?

By the person who put it on IMGUR. Or at least his pet dog.
