That sure looks like a self defence to me!
To bad she didn't have a 12 ga waiting for the perp. -g

Good for her. I wish she would have had more rounds on target.

Yep, she needs hollow point and bigger ammo next time.

Some of comments at the end of the story make me want to throw up.

One poster says that it was a "senseless shooting." WTF?!?!?!

[kurac]

It looks like she got him in the gut, that would hurt even with a .25ACP

Dirt Bag Deserves it! Trying to steal from Hard Working People, glad she was armed, imagine what could have happened to her if she wasn't?

+1 for the good guys.

Glad she was able to sucessfully defend herself from that scuzz. If her store was located in San Francisco, I'm sure the outcome would've turned out horribly different.

Too bad that career criminal didn't drop like a rock and bleed to death in front of that security camera.

When I was watching the video I was wincing when he probably got through because I figured he was going to scuff her up before she managed to pull on him....I'm glad she got to it before he even got a chance to lay a hand on her

I also wish that criminal would have been done for then....

Good shooting. She really seemed to keep it together in spite of what was about to happen.

Preferably, in agonizing pain in hospital for a few days before he expires.

So - the guy in the red shirt (seen through the window of the store) was a bystander or a lookout?

I'm thinking he might have been an accomplice. As for the store owner, she must have been terrified. I'll bet she was glad she was armed!

She needs to a better holster. You can see that it was hard for her to get at it in her pocket. An IWB or OWB holster with a cover shirt would be better if she wants to kee it concealed.

Seems like the video indicated they hadn't found the guy yet. Wonder if he ran off and died in the bushes or at home from a couple of GSWs to the gut.

Good job for her
