A gun violence counselor and employee with the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office shot and killed an armed man who tried to rob him at gunpoint, officials confirmed with NBC10.
On Tuesday, shortly before 10 a.m., an armed 31-year-old man tried to rob another man on the 2600 block of North Napa Street in the Strawberry Mansion neighborhood, Philadelphia police said. The second man fired his own weapon, shooting the 31-year-old once in the chest.
The 31-year-old man was pronounced dead at the scene. The man who shot him was not injured during the incident and has not been charged.
Wednesday night, a spokesperson for the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office confirmed with NBC10 that the 31-year-old gunman was a sex worker while the man who shot him in self-defense is an employee with the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office who also works as a gun violence counselor for the District Attorney’s Immediate Response Team.
NBC10 reached out to the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office for comment.
“This is an active investigation that has been appropriately referred to another agency,” a spokesperson for the District Attorney’s Office told NBC10. “We have no further comment at this time.”
Justice delayed is justice denied. Looks like we have some instant justice here.
The DA office introduction is necessary because it answer the reader’s first question: “why did the state allow this victim to defend himself?”
gee i hipemthey put the armed govt da thug through the same exact crap his office would put a regular citizen through
“The gunman was a sex worker.”
Sounds like some off brand kind of movie.
That’s newspeak for ‘prostitute’................
That’s effective gun violence counseling.
“works as a gun violence counselor”
Can’t make that stuff up. How come he didn’t counsel him?
Robbery or he didn’t pay the prostitute?
Did he have a concealed carry permit?
I’d say, “It wasn’t concealed when I shot him.”...................
Philly has a Soros DA who does not as a rule, hold people who commit crimes.
He thinks it discriminates, so you are arrested, taken in, and let go.
If someone knows differently, I’d like to know.
This sentence run just as line in a newstory speaks eloquently about what has happened to our culture since 1998.
So...........the skells they release are coming for them
