Amazing/lucky shot. Turned out okay, but that was reckless.
would not try that here in MA. There was no threat to the shop owner at the time he shot the robber in the head.
Taking down the SUVs plate number would have accomplished the same thing--return of the stolen property as the cops went to arrest this punk
I get it. We would like this to be a good shoot. As we would like others to not be able to steal from, or otherwise victimize us, and get a free pass once they are done and have begun fleeing. Seems so lousy, that once the bad guy turns and flees, now the good guys adrenaline has to be null and void. That said, this is a bad shoot. There was much more that turning and fleeing going on here. Especially as a former LEO, the judgement was questionable. The shot it self tho, while running, head shot through the back back window, of a moving target? Hot dang, that was a hell of a shot. Still a bad shoot, this seems to me to be truly a case of that’s what insurance is for. I wonder if he gets charged... FLA so could go either way
Ahh maybe special LEO treatment. ?Former LEO:
Dacey, 57, of Palm City, is a retired law enforcement officer from New York who has owned the store with wife Barbara since 2012, according to TCPalm's public records searches
I'm sorry, but that seems like vengeful vigilante justice there. Unarmed, fleeing, nobody threatened in the moment he shot.
He has an absolute right to stand his ground and that kid is an absolute scumbag, bit the shooter would have a better case if he shot the kid when he was in the shop making threats, not effectively in the back as he was fleeing.
He was only doing robberies until his Rap career took off....got to give the 3 baby mommas some money.Teen suspect shot in head during jewelry store robbery in Florida
MARTIN COUNTY, Fla. (WFLA) - A Florida teen was shot in the head by a jewelry store owner following a robbery at the business.
The teen, who is a suspect in the case, remains in grave condition, TCPalm.com reported, citing the Martin County Sheriff's office. We are withholding his name because he is a minor.
On Thursday morning, investigators said the teen entered the shop and asked to see gold rings and a chain. Then he put on three gold rings, each costing at least $850. He was told he couldn't try them all on at once, so he threatened to kill one of the store owners, investigators said.
Still wearing the rings, the teen pushed an employee out of the way and ran out of the store. Then he got into the passenger's side of an SUV.
Surveillance video shows the other store owner, 57-year-old Michael Dacey, fire a shot at the vehicle, which hit the suspect in the head.
Officials said the teenager was rushed to the hospital where he remains in critical condition.
The 16-year-old driver got out of the SUV and began to flee, but was caught a short time later. That teen is facing robbery and grand theft charges. One of the teens involved was reportedly involved in another jewelry store theft earlier that morning in unincorporated Port St. Lucie.
Investigators referred the case to the State's Attorney's Office, but Dacey is unlikely to be charged, the newspaper reported.
“We have no intention, as of now, based on the evidence we have, of making an arrest," Sheriff William Snyder said.

They don't say how many rounds he firedSo we are amazed he hit the perp?
No it wouldn't have, the YUMMIE (Young Urban Maggot) would do time at taxpayers expense and then go on to rob rape and steal. This accomplished a much better result.would not try that here in MA. There was no threat to the shop owner at the time he shot the robber in the head.

True enough, something these 2 nitwits should has considered.
But the jewelers I know would let this goon go,
And let the cops catch up with them,
Have the goods covered by the insurance.
In south Florida tho,
They may well be under siege
And the shoot em before they get away mode is good to go.
