Army vet to knife-wielding man at Pathmark: 'I don't want to shoot you'Ability: had 13" knife
Opportunity: approaching army Vet and girlfriend
Jeopardy: five feet away, cursing and threatening
Preclusion: showed Glock and warned BG
Conclusion: shot to the groin with intent to "stop him"
Background: 21 prior arrests on charges including assault and theft
My observation: BG made poor choice of victim but was lucky not to take 2 in CoM. Most unlucky: taxpayers.
