She stated that she tried to stop the vehicle...OK...I have seen TV shows where cops shoot at the cars...
I was thinking maybe the employee, who got shot, would sue the lady...But, maybe not...

Anyone with actual gun training knows you don’t fire “stop shots”

Reyes should pick her spots better.
Wasting it on shoplifters at Ace?

With a deadly weapon. Put a bullet in a random person do the time.

Did she miss the car?
Did the shot ricochet?
Did she point at the employee?

My questions exactly. Unless the store employee was chasing after the car and got in front of her, I don’t know how this went down.
To: L.A.Justice
What if she self identified as a Police Officer, would she walk??

In some jurisdictions one is only allowed to shoot to stop.
It’s not legal to shoot to kill.
It’s not legal to shoot to wound.
It’s not legal to shoot to warn.
It’s only legal to shoot to stop.
In some jurisdictions, if you tell them anything, it might be advisable to tell the police you “shot to stop” someone from doing what they were doing rather than tell them you shot to kill, wound or warn.

Definitely no need for deadly force in this situation.
She must have dozed off during that part of her concealed carry class. /sarc

"...looked to be shoplifting..."
Employees could have also just as easily been shouting:
"Stop, you forgot your bag of drywall screws and duct tape! Stop!"
What a completely stupid reason to unholster a firearm.
Dopes like her make CCW more difficult for the rest of us.

Reyes told police that she fired at least two “stop shots” toward the vehicle, in an attempt to disable the vehicle but not hurt anyone. Not a good reason to shoot...and BTW, as to the pictured perp:

I just got my gun permit at the end of the year and was thinking:
1. You shoot only to neutralize the threat. There was no threat here.
2. You don’t fire as a ‘warning’ or to ‘disable’ a vehicle.
3. You are responsible for every bullet you fire until it comes to rest.

Freeing on shoplifters fleeing the scene is not an appropriate use of force in almost any case. She done screwed up.
But “Aggravated Assault”? Complete BS.

Are the two robbers now also chargable with felony assault?

Musta missed that part of my CCW class where “stop shots” was covered.
Seriously though....that’s not a thing, and firing a weapon at shoplifters? She made some terrible decisions.
