DETROIT (WJBK) - Two guys walked in to a very busy Gents Barbershop at about 5:30 p.m. Friday on Whittier at Stratman on Detroit's east side. One with a gun said, "You know what time it is."
What the two bad guys didn't know was two customers were legally carrying handguns.
A man in a chair getting a cut took advantage of pulling his gun under the cover of the smock.
When one bad guy said, "Why you stalling? Empty your pockets," he then fired a shot into the floor of the barber shop. That's when the customer in the chair opened fire and emptied his automatic clip containing multiple rounds.
Three children were also standing behind the barber chair. That same customer took his unarmed hand and swept the three children into a safe spot out of the way against the wall.
The end result was that none of the customers or children were hurt. One bad guy was killed and the other ran off during the shooting.
Police say the deceased has a long rap sheet. He was currently out on parole for an armed robbery conviction. They are still looking for a suspect that is described as a black male with scruffy hair between the ages of 22 and 30. They say he is six feet tall with a thin build and was wearing a white tee shirt and blue shorts.
You would never see this statement in the MSM.
huh?
That’s one way to cure an infection.
>> emptied his automatic clip containing multiple rounds. <
> huh?
Yeah.
Most “journalists” know NOTHING about guns.
'Yeah homie. It's time for your mama to scream and shout!'
“automatic clip containing multiple rounds”
Writer is not too gun savvy.
emptied his clip is confusing I agree, who writes this stuff? He emptied his magazine, which of course would contain more than one round, at least they got the rounds part right heh.
This never could have happened in Chicago.
Don’t be silly. MSM journalists always know what they’re writing about. The customer obviously was carrying a sawed off M-1 Garand.

It figures that the description given at a barber shop was "scruffy hair".
No mention is made of the ages of the customers. I’m kinda betting that these homies may not have guessed that messing with “crazy old black guys” ain’t any smarter than messing with “crazy old white guys”. I did some time for “contempt of court” so I got some first-hand skinny on what these guys think and what they’re scared of. Old guys, race doesn’t matter, who are tired of their crap is at the top of the list.
It's a journalist. Be grateful he didn't say:
That's when the customer in the chair opened fire and emptied his automatic 12 gauge machine-gun assault revolver containing multiple magazines and newspaper rounds.

It’s Detroit, my hometown and birthplace. Shouldn’t be too hard to locate this suspect ya think?
‘Scruffy hair’ — hardihar. I love a happy ending.

I was thinking there should be a few people that match that description. The one with the brown streak on the back of his blue shorts is the one you want.
...with a very, very large brown stain on the back.
