National Carry Academy200-Pound Attacker Gets Shot By A 105-Pound, 65-Year-Old Victim
July 19, 2016
This is just one of the amazing stories of how concealed carrying can save lives. A 65-year-old woman was followed by an intruder on her way home while she was driving her car.
WMUR reported:
“She said she tried to park as close to the building as possible, but the car parked near her. After she left her car, she heard another vehicle door close and heard someone approaching her quickly from behind, police said.
“Something in my head said to take the gun out of my purse,” the woman told News 9.
With her hand on the gun now in her coat pocket, she told News 9 that she headed toward her apartment. She said she looked behind and saw a man following her.
The woman told police that a white man wearing a dark, hooded sweatshirt ran past her and blocked her path. “Ten feet from the front stairs. That’s when he caught up to me, and he came around me and stood right in front of me. Right in my face,” she said.
“But then when I saw him reach his left arm out to try and grab me, that’s when I pulled the gun out and I shot him,” she said.
Investigators said the woman, described as 4 feet, 11 inches tall and weighing 105 pounds, feared for her safety and has a valid concealed carry permit. Bontaites is described as 5 feet, 11 inches tall and weighing 200 pounds.
The woman told News 9 that she had a valid concealed permit through the Manchester Police Department for more than 10 years. “Last night was the first time I ever shot that gun in all the time I’ve owned it,” she said.”
Most law-abiding carriers have the same experience of not using their guns for self-defense purposes even after years of having their permits. There are others who may even not use it their whole lives, but they still exercise their rights to have a gun to be used for emergency situations.
Crime and violence cannot be predicted, so citizens must be grateful for their Second Amendment rights in America. There are lots of l situations where you can save your life by using a firearm.
