Detroit Gun Owner Takes On Multiple Armed Robbers

By Cam Edwards

A concealed carry holder in Detroit was forced to defend himself against multiple attackers who tried to rob him on a city street Thursday night.

Officials said the 49-year-old CPL holder was in the 8200 block of Woodlawn Avenue on Detroit’s east side when he saw three men in a black Buick around 9 p.m. Thursday.

The men were trying to rob someone when they noticed the 49-year-old, police said. They tried to rob him, but he pulled out his gun and started to fire shots at them, according to authorities.

The mini-crime spree was stopped once the armed citizen fired at the robbers. The trio got back into their vehicle and fled the scene at a high rate of speed. Or rather, they attempted to get away. Turns out they drive about as well as they rob.

While fleeing the area, the men put their car in reverse and crashed into a building, police said. They ran away but were later found in a vacant house in the 8100 block of Knodell Street just blocks away in Detroit.

A Grosse Pointe Farms K-9 unit helped Detroit police track the men to the vacant house, officials said.
