Quote:Penn says he called police that day to report his store had been robbed and that he was holding the suspect at gunpoint.

Allen said because police were called to investigate a robbery and Penn was armed, they believed he might have been the suspect.

I'll let the courts sort this thing out, but I think your summary left out the part where the owner already had the shoplifting suspect on the ground at gunpoint but refused to put down his weapon after the officers arrived and requested it.

On the bright side, you may have a future in the MSM if they don't all go out of business.

Somebody likely getting paid.

Lesson

Dont call police and greet them with a firearm.

You could get your jaw broke

He's lucky to still be alive if he had a firearm and refused to put it down for police.

Here's a thought when dealing with the police. Don't be stupid. If they have a gun and you have a gun, there's always the potential for something really bad to happen. Someone needs to deescalate, and it won't be them.

Or at least don't call the police if you are not prepared to do what they tell you to do when they show up.
