A 72-year-old Harlem business owner used a shotgun to blast four men who tried to rob his restaurant-supply business Thursday afternoon, killing two and sending two others to the hospital with gunshot wounds, the New York City police said.The business, the Kaplan Brothers Blue Flame Corporation, at 523 West 125th Street, near Amsterdam Avenue, sells commercial gas and electric ranges, as well as parts and repairs.
The police said that the four would-be robbers entered the business and announced that they were robbing it. One of them took out a Glock 9-mm pistol and started to pistol-whip a 33-year-old employee inside the store. The owner then took out a shotgun and opened fire, striking the four men.
Public records identify the owner as Charles J. Augusto Jr., 72.
The police said they did not believe the shotgun — a Winchester 12-gauge pump shotgun with a pistol grip handle — had been registered, as city law requires.
The old guy should be given a medal.
UPDATE
From CBS's Crimesider Blog. Good news: "Grampa Shotgun" won't be charged.

Tomorrow, D.C. vs. Heller (or, Government vs. our 2nd Amendment)
0 comments Posted by kotang at 5:40 PMA government that fears it's armed citizens, should be very afraid of it's armed citizens. Our Government, if within check, needn't fear an armed citizenry.
Hopefully, we will see our Government uphold the 2nd.
If not, then we'll have proof that we don't have the same government we had in the beginning, and that the powerful in Washington aren't even trying to pretend anymore.

A Stark Contrast: Omaha Mall's all-victim (gun-free) Slaughterhouse; Denver's Church Defended by Heroine (with God, and a Gun)

click on the pic for Michelle's full writeupIt seems that a concealed carry permit should be valid, no matter where you go. Otherwise, you have a 'gun-free zone' that's a 'worry-free zone' for these crazed loony toons.
My take? I won't go to an establishment that restricts my right to carry (Federal and State Buildings are exceptions, of course.)
In Denver, the 'toon had over 1000 rounds, and was barely getting started when faced with Jeanne Assam.
In Omaha, the kid never faced any opposition whatsoever. After all, there was a sign. He was safe!
