"Store Owner Single-Handedly Fights Four Armed Robbers

PHILADELPHIA -- Police said a local mini-mart owner fought back during a robbery attempt, putting three of the five culprits in the hospital.

Police said a group of men pulled their guns after Germantown store owner John Lee told them to pull their hoods down.

Lee grabbed his own gun and shot three of the four suspects inside the Musgrave Street and Chelten Avenue store before they could target him.

He found the fourth gunman hiding in the back of the store.

“I found out he had a gun on him, so I beat him up pretty bad,� Lee said. “Kicked them hard; I gave them a lesson."

Police did not release the suspects' name or medical conditions, but said they were all suspects in other robberies, too.

Police arrested them and a fifth suspect who was waiting outside in a getaway car. "

I hope the taught them "a lesson" language doesn't get him in trouble. I'm glad he fought back.

The NRA & TSRA are a bargain; they're much cheaper than the cold, dead hands experience.
