Another good guy wins

An enraged man entered a restaurant and shot and killed his girlfriend - a waitress at the restaurant.

The man was shot by a restaurant patron, who was legally concealed-carrying a pistol. The criminal then went outside and fatally shot himself in the head, ending the fight.

The local Sheriff will not be pressing charges against the patron, who acted in self defense. That patron was shot in the abdomen, but has been treated and is expected to make a full recovery.


Lessons learned:

• I guess guns in restaurants that serve alcohol does work! Landry's restaurant (map) is a chain that serves alcohol. Here's their menu - offering mai tai's. Obviously, the good guy wasn't drinking and carrying.
• Bad guys don't care about restraining orders.
• Bad guys who are not allowed to carry guns (like when they have restraining orders against them) still carry guns. Criminals in general do not obey laws (hence the reason they are criminals).
• Anything worth shooting once is worth shooting twice. Every person shot in this instance survived the first shot. 
• Bullet placement is key. The Bad Guy shot the good guy in the abdomen, and it didn't kill him. He had to shoot his girlfriend multiple times to kill her. However, he killed himself very efficiently with a single shot to the head. Gruesome, I know - but true.
