Three shot, one fatally, in robbery attempt on Sally Court, near Fleming
FLINT, Michigan — Police say one person died and two others were wounded when they attempted to rob a man around 11 p.m. Wednesday on Sally Court near Fleming.Five people approached the man while he was at his home. The man, who had a gun, shot at the would-be robbers, killing one and injuring two others, police said. The two men were taken to a local hospital, but their conditions are unknown, police said.
FIVE dudes and he kills one and sends two more to the hospital. Damn, dude, but that's some damn good shooting. Minute of goblin, indeed. I'm impressed. Seriously, though, five home invaders? That's a good reason for a home defense carbine right there. Is it just me, or do these stories seem to be increasing?
In any case, the good guy won, yet again.

You know - after the shooting in Manchester, CT this week (I live 25 minutes from there) it does make me think about these kinds of incidences and how they do seem to be increasing.
Especially after the home invasion in Cheshire, CT 2 years ago. That got alot of people in CT thinking, as does the Manchester shooting this week.
If just one person in Manchester had a gun that morning - perhaps there would be more people who lived thru that nightmare.
I haven't had the courage to conceal & carry yet - it is an awesome responsibility; I'm starting to think I'm too slow on this and need to get over my trepidation and just start doing it. I've got a nice S&W .38 Chiefs Special; sweet, compact and I'm very accurate with it (at least in tactical shooting scenarios at our club).
Haven't been commenting here much lately but I've been lurking... :-)
Five home invaders in Flint? Why I'm shocked I tell you, SHOCKED!
Actually I won't be shocked until Flint and Detroit start to look like some of the rougher African countries with regards to gangs and thuggery. It's not really a short trip either.
FIVE home invaders?!!
Definitely a case of "a pistol is what you use to get to a real gun."
And I wonder what they had planned? I mean, why would you use five guys for a simple robbery? That's just more ways you have to split the loot.

Living in Flint, MI is reason enough to have a home defense carbine.
Geez, and to think I had only 17 rounds of 9mm at my bedside last night.
Good shootin'! I'm glad to see he made it out of there alive.
In my head, I imagine this guy saying, "Get off my lawn!" It makes me very happy. This story also makes me feel better about the 30-30 next to my bed.
Before the overpenetration crowd chimes in, a bear went through the yard right next to the kids and me in broad daylight (on its third visit in a week) the other day. I also only have a neighbor not buffered by a birm in one direction.
My Fil law lives about 2 blocks from where this happened. The homeowner was in his driveway when this happened. At least one of the "youths" was armed.
In the last month or so there have been 15 stabbings in that area, with several deaths. Police have finally admitted that someone is hunting people with a knife. Not a safe place to live.
