Opinion: Carjacker Chooses Wrong Line of Work
Another armed citizen to the rescue, this time near Atlanta.

A carjacker in Smyrna, Georgia, near Atlanta, had a very bad day today. He tried to steal a woman’s car at a car wash, but the owner threw herself on the windshield. When the thug kept driving – putting the woman at risk – a nearby armed citizen responded, drawing his handgun and firing one shot, hitting the thief in the shoulder. The woman “slid off the car,” unhurt, according to witnesses. The would-be thief stopped and fell out of the car, holding his wound and “shivering and shaking.” He was arrested by responding police officers. His accomplices fled the scene.
