Most every guy I knew in my local FD was strapped.

Isn't this the man who shot the guy who kidnapped and murdered the young woman from the Walmart store in Texas?

Thats the one.
The State of Texas needs to present this gentleman with a medal.
As far as the perp, when he gets back to Texas he will wish the fireman had killed him.

He needs to go back to the range and concentrate on hitting center mass.

Thats the one. I thought it might be the same one. It was all over TV in Albuquerque because he kidnapped her in TX and passed through NM on his way to AZ.

I agree. Thank God he shot him before he killed someone else.
As far as the perp, when he gets back to Texas he will wish the fireman had killed him.
I hope they put him to death. Immediately! What a horrible thing to have happened to that young woman. She was still just a kid, and he ended her life for nothing.

It doesn't speak well of current Marine training that the marine lost a gunfight with a retired firefighter.

Good for him....as long as some idiot doesn't want him charged with assault or something equally stupid.

I don't think he was very a good 'marine' to begin with.

Yes. He is a murderer. Also a Marine. Also black. But the news only says he is a Marine. Is that relevant? Is it prejudicial against the Marines?

Now if this had gone down in the Big Apple, this ex-NYFD man might be in big trouble.

Police said she was killed at the hands of a man who went on a multistate crime spree before he turned up Friday at an Arizona hospital with a gunshot wound.
