The author is an idiot. So is her Senior Editor. Identified the old mans weapon correctly as a shotgun but calls it a rifle two paragraphs later. She must be looking for a job in politics.

1) “ the quick-thinking store owner pulled out a shotgun..

2)”the owner immediately went for his rifle.”

Reporter Marjorie Hernadez does not know the difference between a rifle and a shot gun.`

Marjorie is the New York Posts Bureau Chief in Los Angeles.

Any volunteers to take her to the range for a little one on one range time?

I couldn’t get the Post article to load (old computer). But I’ve read elsewhere that the 80-year-old store owner had a heart attack right after this incident due to the stress. He’s in the hospital. The report I read said he’s doing okay.

"His identity is being withheld pending his release from the hospital. "

In the meantime, he is being referred to as "Lefty".
