Man shot in back after he gives robber his money

[BrianSW99]

Here's a reminder that if someone is threatening you with a gun, you have to assume they intend to kill you. It's hard to say whether he would have had an opportunity to draw and fire if he had been armed, but if you ever find yourself in that same situation, you can't assume that just being compliant will keep you alive.

Must be another real nice neighborhood if people get robbed on the street at 9:00 AM?

Great reminder, Brian, of the dangers we face and the bad consequences that may result even if one complies.

Actually, that area is more industrial than anything. But it is pretty much right next to the bad part of town.
