Where’s the part where he told the scumbag to get face down on the ground while he calls the police?! This hood is just going to go get the next old lady he sees walking down the street!
My first thought also, but read the story. The perp ran off and Yeager felt he was probably not armed so what could he do? He did call 911 and gave the cops a description.
If he told the scumbag to get down on the ground and called the police, would he have been arrested for “brandishing” his weapon, or something else equally ridiculous? That’s what would happen here in Jersey (provided that he could even obtain a carry permit).
