In a jewelry store in Houston on Thursday the 17th, two men were prettending to be shoppers in the store. A third person burst into the store and stated it was a robbery, then all three men pulled out guns. They took the store owner's wife and tied her up in a back room. As the guys were trying to tie up the 52 year old store owner, he pulled a handgun out of his waistband and shot and killed one of the suspects. Then he shot and killed the two other suspects.The owner was in critical but stable condition after sufferring from gunshots to his shoulder, abdomen and legs. The wife was not hurt. Police are looking for a fourth subject who may have been the getaway car driver.
I don't understand people. If they have the time to plan a robbery and the will power to do something like that, they should be able to have the will power to go get a job and make their own money instead of stealing other peoples'. I always wonder what is going through the head's of these robbers. They clearly have no morals. I think it was completely neccessary for the store owner to take matters into his own hands and use his gun to protect himself and his wife. If the robbers were cruel enough to steal and think they could get away with it, they deserve some punishment. No, they wouldn't have to be killed but something should be done. I probably would have shot them to just wound them, not kill them but i suppose in the moment one wouldn't really be thinking about that. I am just glad that the owner is going to be okay and his wife is unharmed. I hope the police are able to find and punish the fourth suspect.
