"We ran out of ammunition."

I liked the 60 minute segment (1990s) on this holigan who was terrorizing a small rural community. His actions were well documented in the segment as well as the fact that the local police were afraid to act.
One afternoon, he was gunned down in front of the popular local dinner by several members of the community. The police couldn’t find a single soul that saw the incident even thought the dinner was full at the time.
60 Minutes asked one of the locals what he thought of this and he replied: “Some folks just need killin.”
