Are you for real? “Who runs from a gun?” Many crime victims who don’t want to stand around to find out if they’ll get shot have run from guns. Victims don’t have time to plan how they will behave. It’s a split second decision. So stop being so ridiculously judgmental of the poor victim. Have you seen the security video? I have. Nothing bizarre about it. Typical violent armed robbery committed by thugs who target people minding their business on the street.

Don’t know if this is true, but had heard the criminal had been following this guy. He knew the guy
wore some kind of expensive watch and went to the same gym everyday at the same time.

That’s pretty obvious from the videos. The victim pulled into his regular space in the lot at his office and the attackers were right behind him. One of them immediately ran up to the victim and shoved a gun in his face without even looking around the lot.

I hope the victim was a liberal and lives long enough to change his vote.

When I was walking my dog, I heard all the sirens and saw a couple of helicopters circling overhead but I didn’t know what was going on! I sure hope that the victim is going to be okay, and that they catch the a*hole who did it!

This clip shows the attack happening. I noticed that several able-bodied adults walked right by the fallen victim until one person stopped to check on him.

Here’s another news clip with another view of the attack. The 6 pm Channel 2 news reported that the victim is alive and hospitalized. It looks to me like the license plate of the Infiniti driven by the suspects is visible.
