Robber Brings Knife to a gun fight

[Darthlawsuit]

A pizza delivery-man fatally shot a knife-wielding robber after dropping off a pizza to a motel room.

Domino’s employee Bryon Park, 54, had just returned to his vehicle after delivering a pizza to a room in a Days Inn motel in West Melbourne, Fla., about midnight Friday when Fredrick Lorenza Kelly Jr., 32, approached him with a large knife, the Brevard Times reports.

Kelly allegedly threatened to kill Park if he didn’t hand over money. A police official reports Park grabbed a gun he carries in his vehicle and fired once toward Kelly, who was later pronounced dead at the scene, the Times reports.

“Preliminary evidence in the case demonstrates that the intended victim of the robbery acted in self-defense while being robbed by a violent criminal who was armed with a knife,” Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey said.

Kelly’s lengthy rap sheet includes armed robbery, aggravated battery, and false imprisonment, according to the sheriff’s office, and was released from prison in 2009, the Times says.

Would've just shot um in the leg or arm, no need to kill the man. Guns are for wussies anyways, but it does save lives I guess.

He probably just aimed for his chest and shot, its the easiest place to hit. He only used one bullet afterall.

i don't know if it's the same there as in my country, but unfortunately, here it is, that if i am attacked by a guy with a knife and i kill him using gun, i go to jail cause i used inadequate defense because gun > knife, it is like 1 of the most bs laws ever U_U

This is why it's necessary to have guns in today's society

 

[Sabuto Hayashi]

The robber was bound to get shot at some point, especially when you look at his rap sheet.

I don't know the full story, but good on Park for defending himself. Most people nowadays would be too afraid to lest they would end up convicted for using 'excessive force', despite the fact their life could have been at risk.

Well yeah but if he had a gun he could've aimed and shot. If the robber didn't move when he first pulled out the gun then he wouldn't have if he aimed at his leg or arm. He's a robber anyway, not like he would've done much for society anyways.
