Hitting him 3 times from the balcony while the criminal was holding the girlfriend at gunpoint, and the girlfriend was apparently not injured?

I’d say that’s some fine shooting.

I’d go even further and add that that level of precision shows a certain level of grace and mercy for not just shooting the peep once,, in the head.

Yup. The apparent fack that the perp was holding the girl is going to really limit the available shots one could take. Guessing that the first hit made him drop the gal. If she was alert she would have gone limp and dropped. The next two shots should have adjusted his attitude. Note that he apparently didn’t run off demanding his rights. And note it doesn’t say the KIA owner only shot 3 times-—just that he hit the perp 3 times. No mention of whether the KIA was a backstop?

Might have been a matter of not being able without endangering the gf.
