A Philadelphia gun store owner allegedly killed a potential looter early Tuesday, police said.
The owner of Firing Line Inc. in South Philadelphia told police he was inside his store when four men entered after smashing the glass of the door at about 4:13 a.m.
The 67-year-old owner, whose name was not released by police, confronted the men after they ran up the stairs and discharged his Bushmaster M4 rifle, “fatally wounding one offender,” the Philadelphia Police Department said in a statement.
“One of the individuals that broke into the property, pointed a handgun at him,” Chief Inspector Scott Smalls told Fox 29. “And that’s when the store owner fired his own weapon — striking the one perpetrator at least one time in the head and he collapsed, dropping his gun between his legs.”

Thank you. His brave actions prevented guns from getting into the hands of rioters.
Not the smartest thing to do, looting a gun store when the owner might be around…
The owner should be hailed as a hero. The police are not being allowed to protect those who pay taxes for their own protection. Give the man a trophy for standing up for himself and his livelihood. Haba b’machteres hashkeim v’hargo!!
Why did the store owner ONLY shoot ONE! Their were four of them, he should have shoot ALL four of them.
he should have put a sign outside owner on premises
Kill ’em all!!!
Yey! finally some good news!
Good for him!!
That’s all we need is for these animals to loot a gun store. I’m glad he was shot.
Finally one story with a “happy” ending…
Was he blank or white?

If there will be more riots, protests, looting, killing police (as philly is known for) etc.
There is no question, the left wing liberal Mayor will have this owner arrested. It’s only a matter of time. One is not allowed to defend themselves. Just ask the mosrim.
What did he expect, going into the firing line
He’s probably going to get 25 years to life. Go Murica.
President Trump shall be inviting you his 1st State of the Union Address of his 2nd term. Hopefully with a Republican House-speaker who doesn’t rip up his speech.
