Misleading headline. Armed robbery lead to a shootout, gun battle. Money exchanged hands, then the people who offered the merchandise refused to hand it over.
An armed Samaritan then came out and held two of the participants for the police.

Quick, pass a law banning the illegal sale of guns! That will fix the problem!

Can I assume some or all parties involved were felons, which led to the guns being illegal?

That is some serious port ejection if the brass went through apartments.

COMPLETE propaganda. How does the corrupt news media know it was an “illegal” gun sale? Was either party a felon? How do they know? In Texas it is perfectly legal for a private Texas citizen to sell another gun to another Texas citizen who is lawful to possess (not a felon).

So when a stolen car is involved in an accident that kills a person, is it the fault of the stolen car? The headline on the story about the illegal guns would lead one to believe that the gunfight was the fault of illegal guns. This is rubbish reporting at the least.

Wow. Some ejector. Or was that a cartridge casing? Or a bullet jacket?
