An ex-Marine pulled out a pocket knife after five people, including a young girl, allegedly tried to rob him late Monday evening in Midtown. That girl died.
Another one of the alleged assailants is in critical condition.
Investigators are calling the case one of self-defense. They say no charges will be filed against the victim in the case.

Murtha will say the Marine acted in cold blood, because he was tired...
Ooops!
I guess they picked the wrong guy to rob this time.
Yeah it is!
Atlanta police say around 11 p.m., the victim -- a former U.S. Marine -- was walking home from work at Jock’s and Jill’s in Midtown. He says that when he got to 4th Street and Penn Avenue, five people jumped out of a Cadillac with guns. He says he kicked the guns out of their hands, and fought back with his very own pocket knife.
Police say that two of the suspects were armed -- one with a handgun, the other with a shotgun.
Investigators say two of the suspects got stabbed. They all took off and drove themselves to Atlanta Medical Center. One suspect died, a second one is listed in critical condition. The remaining three suspects were taken into police custody.
ROFLMAO!!!
Nothin' like a well organized effort, eh.
Gun? That's not a gun!
Note to all young girls: To avoid being fatally stabbed by an ex-Marine, don't run with a gun-toting gang of muggers.
I'll bet she had a gun, but they're not saying.
…five people jumped out of a Cadillac with guns. He says he kicked the guns out of their hands, and fought back with his very own pocket knife.
“There’s actually been a lookout for these individuals, and tonight, we caught up with them.”
This blows holes in the old saying, "You do not bring a knife to a gunfight"!
Fix the headline! There's no such thing as an ex-Marine.
Police are said to be looking for this man: Frank Castle, for further questioning.
Actually, there is...an individual who left under other that honorable circumstances.
Police say that two of the suspects were armed -- one with a handgun, the other with a shotgun.
Outnumbered five to one. One enemy with a strap and the other with a shotgun. He whips out his pocketknife -- and wins.
Two, each made of steel and the size of a bowling ball. Now that's a man!
Good for the Marine.
"They started it, I finished it". "They drew first blood! Not Me!"
-- Sounds like a good movie
I hope he didn't get his uniform dirty.......
The dead and wounded don't run all that fast.
Murtha will want to open an independent investigation trying to prove Marines are carrying on murderous rampages of civilians here in the U.S.
An ex-Marine..
There's no such thing. Once a Marine, always a Marine.
