A man who robbed two people in a car in a Tacoma parking lot Friday was fatally shot by one of the robbery victims during the confrontation, police said.
The shooting occurred about 6:45 p.m. in the 1200 block of Division Avenue.
The Pierce County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the dead man as 26-year-old Terry Webb. Police said Webb robbed two men at gunpoint.
“One of the robbery victims was legally armed and shot the suspect,” police spokeswoman Loretta Cool said. Webb was driven to the hospital by a friend and pronounced dead on arrival.
The 36-year-old robbery victim who shot Webb was not arrested.
The investigation is ongoing.
Although police declined to say who drove Webb to the hospital after the shooting, a 26-year-old woman was booked into Pierce County Jail on suspicion of first-degree robbery shortly after the incident.
Some good news for a change, thanx!
Always have some applause for the Taxpayer Relief Shot. And the fact that the Good Guy gets to walk away, alive.
Good shooting!
Love a happy ending, one more dirtbag in the ground.
Good shooting, Citizen. Civilization thanks you.
Good. This is exactly what the bastards want to take away from us. They would leave guns in the hands of violent criminals and take them from non-violent individuals.
*snif* I get all choked up at a happy ending.
So where is Terry Webb’s photo? My bet is that he’s Black, because if he were White, they would have a photo in the article.

That is about 2 hours and 9 minutes from my house, without traffic.
Please keep ‘em there.
Excellent. If only every encounter like this left every crimimal thug dead.
And I went to church today.
Methinks the charges will be upgraded shortly to, oh, murder.
I don't think this is him but it's in the mix.
The guy is 28 years old, so that would narrow the field. But my point is that who he is, is indisputable, so not publishing his picture should not be a no-no! You are left wondering just who the LE’s are trying to protect. I am just sorry Webb isn’t dead, because now we will have to “try” the SOB, and he will not be executed.
Fatally shot. Pronounced dead. Yet he lives?

Either we're missing something in the article, or you are.
“One of the robbery victims was legally armed and shot the suspect,”
Thank God he was LEGALLY armed.
The guys in Tacoma have all the fun. Although here in Arlington (60 miles north) we have the highest percentage in weapon carriers in the state (1/3 of us have guns). Maybe that is why the bad guys don’t come up here as much.
Yes, those illegal guns are a menace.
