Start at 2:20 mark. I was not impressed with how the employees handled the situation from looking at the video by itself.

Really? How so? They are both alive and the one unarmed lady got to cover.

Sometimes people get lucky. This was covered earlier in the thread by others. Please see below:

Agreed that the pawn shop employee certainly had plenty of opportunity to draw.

30 seconds in between the time:
he pulls something out of the chamber and makes first reach for his mag
he inserts the mag

He should've been receiving instructions looking down the barrel of a gun w/ a chambered round during the above 30 seconds not getting finger waiving. The clerk was not outgunned at this point.

Another 1 min 10 seconds between:
he inserts the mag
he chambers the round

He should've been ventilated during this 1 min 10 seconds.


To me this was a failure to have a plan on how to deal with this situation. I agree with all of the above. The old guy opening up the front door after the gunman ran out was a poor choice. AR 15 vs handgun. I am sure there were better choices. I saw no one taking advantage of cover or concealment either. This could have turned out very badly.

Must be nice to be a Monday morning QB.
