Police arrived later and found the dead suspect. Medina said a silver .25-caliber handgun was recovered from the scene.

.25 caliber Saturday Night Special versus Dodge Magnum. Not much of a fight.

In fact, the .25 is only slightly better than bringing a knife to a gun fight.

.25 50 gr at 713 feet per second equals about 56 footpounds of energy.

Dodge Durango Magnum 6600 lbs at 88 fps (60mph) equals about 580,800 footpounds of energy.

Man, those SUVs are deadly!

Love you mathematical view of the world. If only they taught physics class like this it would make it so easy to understand.
