[L.A.Justice]

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...

[Mr. K]

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

[Skywise]

Aggravated assault?!

Unlawful discharginf sure - definitely up for a civil suit... but aggravated assault?!

[ifinnegan]

Reyes should pick her spots better.

Wasting it on shoplifters at Ace?

[a fool in paradise]

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

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Is that Nya or her dog?

[eyeamok]

What if she self identified as a Police Officer, would she walk??

[Perseverando]

Definitely no need for deadly force in this situation.

She must have dozed off during that part of her concealed carry class. /sarc

[Blue Jays]

"...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:

[SuperLuminal]

She was clearly incited to this heinous act by DJT's speech...
Snicker...

[Jotmo]

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.

[Mr Radical]

Are the two robbers now also chargable with felony assault?

[Fido969]

That is a TOUGH BROAD!

[V_TWIN]

“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”

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.

[Sapwolf]

If they were not threatening her, why was she shooting at them?

[Delta 21]

Judicious marksmanship is always appreciated.

[dragnet2]

She’s obviously too stupid to own a gun.

[dragnet2]

And what’s up with the mustache? Or is that a lip tattoo? “In remembrance of Smiley RIP”

[eastexsteve]

I can picture this sort of thing happening a lot. I can’t believe it doesn’t happen more than it does. My wife is a CC/LTC instructor, and I often encounter some of her former students and ask them if they’ve fired their gun lately. The response is often: “Nope.”
