Old man fights robbers

Full Story

Excerpt:

Two masked gunmen came into the Subway just after 11 p. m. There was a lone diner, John Lovell. After robbing the cashier, the two men attempted to shove Lovell into a bathroom and rob him as well. They got his money, but then Lovell pulled his handgun and opened fire on the criminal assholes. He shot one of the thieves in the head and chest and the other in the head. Lovell was in the Marine Corps.

He is not expected to be charged, authorities said. ''He was in fear for his life; '' Detective Rettig said, 'These criminals ought to realize that most men in their 70's have military backgrounds and aren't intimidated by idiots'.

Something tells me this old Marine wasn't 'in fear for his life', even though his life was definitely at risk.
The only thing he could be charged with is participating in an unfair fight. One 71 - year young Marine against two punks.
