Then as the robber was fleeing in a getaway vehicle, a man at a nearby gas station who had a licensed gun, reportedly then fired at the suspect. While another vehicle was hit, investigators said the suspect car was not hit.

Thank you.

Just because you own a firearm, it does not mean you are James Bond.

Situational awareness and knowing your own limitations are key.

I actually hate hearing stories like this...there’s no excuse for hitting the wrong target - thankfully, no one was hurt.
