"Montgomery County Deputies responded to a report of shots fired at the US Post Office on Gosling and Panther Creek Pines Tuesday afternoon. In what appeared to be a robbery attempt by a juvenile teen a CHL carrier who was in the parking lot saw what was transpiring and intervened, When the suspect pointed a weapon at the CHL holder he fired three rounds. The suspect fled into the area of the apartments behind the Post Office. Nobody was hit or injured. "
Reported by The Montgomery County Police Reporter, 10/27/2020
We have lots of stuff going on here, but this is the first I've seen involving a license holder. They don't mention any distances, but I would think he could have at least one good shot.

"Resistance to sudden violence, for the preservation not only of my person, my limbs, and life, but of my property, is an indisputable right of nature which I have never surrendered to the public by the compact of society, and which perhaps, I could not surrender if I would." John Adams

Re: Not only in Houston
If I understand correctly it's a felony! When I go to the post office I park in a nearby parking lot, disarm and walk over to the post office!
Government, like fire is a dangerous servant and a fearful master
If you ain't paranoid you ain't paying attention
Don't fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war let it begin here- John Parker
