DETROIT (WXYZ) - Police say a 17-year-old remains in the hospital in critical condition after the young father he tried robbing shot him several times.
It happened late Wednesday afternoon near the corner of Warren and Grayton on the city's east side.
Angela Lanier tells 7 Action News her 24-year-old son Joe fired his gun when the teenager tried robbing him while he was sitting in his car. She says he was on the job as an exterminator when the teenager pulled a gun on him for his sunglasses.
Joe Lanier says, "The boy tried to rob me, and I shot him. That's what happened."
He also went on to say, "That's why he's in the hospital and not me."
His mom is interviewed:
"Maybe if you had taught him a little better, to respect other people, & get out here & get a job, it might not have turned out that way for him" "So if your children do not have any felonies, I advise everyone to pack. I pack, my sons pack, & we're all legal; with it."

>>when the teenager pulled a gun on him for his sunglasses.
Note to journalism majors: the headline should be about the teen pulling the gun and not the sunglasses.
Another note to journalism majors: wait until I stop talking before you ask if I want fries with that. That might just be the next words out of my mouth.

I hope he is at least maimed; a good learning tool for potential POSes...
I love these stories.

Shot him several times? He's in critical condition?
More range time, Joe!
To: kearnyirish2
The only thing they learn is that they are just gonna come out shooting first.

Way to go Mom...you did good. And your son did good listening to his mother and doing all the right things.
To: Secret Agent Man
Yeah, probably...
I mentioned on a thread yesterday that I had just finished reading “The Deerslayer”; survival skills on the frontier (where you could never let an Indian get the draw on you or surprise you) are a lost art that is coming back. I’ve gone to school and worked in bad areas, and never had an issue; you just have to be aware all of the time. If a convoy system is required (a band of whites to fend off the lions), then so be it.

I remember a story years and years ago, reported in Fortean Times, of an exterminator who accidentally injured his partner when a bullet aimed at a rat missed and ricocheted.
The Detroit-based company was called “Hit Man Exterminators.”
