A man attempting to rob a T-Mobile store in New Orleans last night didn’t count on an armed customer drawing his concealed weapon and putting him down hard.

A customer foiled an apparent armed robbery at the T-Mobile store on St. Andrew Street, police said, shooting and killing the armed robber.

Right around the time police were investigating the shooting of six people in Central City, officers in the same NOPD district were called to a T-Mobile store in the 500 block of St. Andrew Street.

Chief Michael Harrison said a suspect was attempting to rob the store, when a customer shot and killed the man. Both weapons were retrieved, and the customer is being questioned by police, Harrison said.

I am so glad he killed the criminal. Never wound a criminal. Just keep shooting.

the customer is being questioned by police, Harrison said.

I hope he is not answering any questions.

“I feared for my life” should be the only answer he gives until he has a lawyer.

"the customer is being questioned by police"

Sounds reasonable, followed, one hopes, by hearty congratulations on a job well done.

I’m sure the store has video surveillance - let the cops use that to put this to bed.

Don’t ever talk to cops without your lawyer.

The Brady bunch will be counting this as another child victim of gun violence. And, given the lack of description, I wouldn’t be surprised to see Black Lies Matter show up.

Lots of CCW reciprocity with Louisiana. Doesn’t have to be a local to take out the trash.

dear meatloaf,

re: “Lots of CCW reciprocity with Louisiana. Doesn’t have to be a local to take out the trash.”

Mitch (the brother of Katrina Mary) Landrieu is a no-gun-at-all guy.

Mitch doesn’t even get to suck hind tit in this case. The law is the law. I noticed quite a few tourists in N.O. last week. I suspect a few of them, given the crime in N.O., had something along for “fun.” I know for a fact a certain “other” person did.
