Well, it seems this guy didn't get the memo...
A masked robber made the fatal mistake of attempting to steal a firearm from a California gun store with only a hammer in hand.
From Slay News:
It will be no surprise to regular Slay News readers that the gun store owner knew his Second Amendment rights and was ready a willing to exercise them.
Unfortunately, there are no prizes for guessing that it didn’t end well for the would-be robber.
Obviously, when the crook pulled a hammer on the store owner, he was shot dead.
Police said their investigation revealed that a 28-year-old man from Redwood City entered East Bay Firearms in the 4000 block of First Street around 2:30 p.m.
The burglar was wearing a mask, gloves, and a hooded sweatshirt pulled over his head.
He was reportedly “acting suspicious.”
Witnesses told police that the crook then tried to rob the gun store by taking a firearm while armed with a hammer.
The gun store owner responded by firing two rounds, fatally wounding the man, police said.
Police arrived at the scene to find the man suffering from a gunshot.
Along with paramedics, they performed lifesaving measures.
However, the man was pronounced dead at the scene.
This criminal is seriously not the brightest bulb in the box.
I mean, what on earth did he think the outcome would be? Well, unfortunately, we can't gauge his logic...
