Wait what? A shotgun in Long Island? Did any of the 3 employees touch it? They could be prosecuted.

Feel good post of the day! Thanks for including the mug shot. I bet he got beat up by a granny. Absolute justice.
Citizens are the first responders.

What kind of criminal robs a thrift store? He must have flunked out of crime school. He was not beat up for being a crook. He was beat up for being stupid.

That clerk has great self control. Many would have just pulled the trigger of the acquired gun.

They may have some problems here. I’m not privy to New York law, but when they wrestled the gun away from the robber, he was no longer a threat. So three people beating him like they did could be considered a crime. I hate to see it that way as in my mind he deserved what he got. But my years of training as a military cop and instructor tell me it depends how the courts think it. And we all know the judges are prime to help the perp rather than the original threatened. And that, unfortunately, may not qualify as self defense. Hope they had a “throw down.”

Island Thrift was having a ‘Green Card Special’, where if you buy two Gooseneck Reading Lamps @ $2.50 each, you get a third lamp for free. Bulbs included!! She was NOT going to miss that Sale!

A long gun is not the best weapon to have if you are committing robbery at close quarters.
