A man is being investigated after fatally shooting two suspected ATM robbers last weekend.
According to reports, this man was using a bank ATM in San Antonio last Friday. He had just gone through when two perps apparently attempted to rob him.
Not going down without a fight, the armed victim then shot at the two would-be robbers. According to FoxNews, police are considering it self-defense. Authorities have not released his identity to the public at this time.
Police Investigate the ATM Robbery
San Antonio Police Chief, William McManus, recently addressed the incident involving an armed Texan we reported on last night.

The two alleged robbers were dead when authorities arrived. KENS5 reported their names to have been identified by police as Terrance Stevens and Mark Brooks III. All three individuals involved are thought to be in their 20s.
After the police investigation, the bank reopened. Other patrons had numerous questions about the incident. Many people were concerned to learn about the events of the day. One woman, who refused to give her name, spoke to KENS5.
“It’s getting really scary. We are not safe to go to our own banks,” she said.
Police Chief William Mcmanus gave a statement, telling the public that this is not the first incident. “This is a trend throughout the country right now.”
He explained one theory the police are investigating, involving a crime called “jugging.” Criminals target people who have just withdrawn money. If this is the case, KENS5 informs us it would make the fourth jugging in San Antonio in the last month.
Mcmanus continued to tell us that this incident did go in the victims’ favor. “It was a robbery that didn’t go well for the robbers,” FoxNews quoted.

NRA posted a video on Twitter of Mcmanus saying this and explaining the situation. A similar video of his statement was released by the SAPD on Facebook.
No charges have been filed against the victim. But stay tuned for updates as the investigation is still ongoing.
Stay On Guard
It’s truly disheartening to see the frequency of such crimes in our current times. Vigilance and preparedness have become essential.
Accordingly, the SAPD has urged citizens to always be mindful of their surroundings. While avoiding trouble is the best course of action, one must be prepared to handle potential dangers if they arise, just like the citizen in this incident.

Shooting muggers and robbers should be a trend– nothing wrong with that.
I love a story with a happy ending.
Jugging? Why did that replace mugging?l
I’m not because I want to, but because now, specially these days, I feel like I have to, carry a loaded ready to shoot at a second’s notice, handgun!
Everywhere any time any place even going down to the damn mailbox because the Ghetto Trash criminal element specifically, has become emboldened by the pandering Communist Progressive Liberal scum which occupies political seats of power, along with a Communist Progressive Liberal inculcated Moron Media that encourages the Criminal Trash to do whatever they feel like, whenever they feel like, because they are “victims” of some idiotic stupid trumped-up societal trope!
I know I am speaking to the choir here, but the choir needs to get out and inform all of their friends, neighbors, and relatives that they better wake their asses up, vote out these Comments Progressive Liberal Criminals, put the Ghetto Trash Criminal FILTH and Illegal Invader Criminals to jail where they belong, and carry a firearm at all times to send a message, just like this guy did at the ATM and sent these two criminals to the place where they ALL belong, Dirt Nap City!
There needs to be a new state motto in Texas, “Welcome to Texas – Fuck Around and Find Out”
FUCK YOU! AUTO DELETE POSTS… AGAIN, FUCK YOU RETARD!
please kiss a speeding buses front bumper. make the world a better place 😉
bless your heart

Now that we have heard from the mentally challenged, we can all rest at ease.
About time that this rampant crime wave all across America has another legal carry citizen protect his property ($$$$) and who knows maybe his life. Criminals should take note that their activity as in this case can mean their lives. Bravo to this man and thumbs down to these two would be robbers.
Come on criminals…FAFO…Which one of us has guns? All of us. We’re willing to stand up. Is it worth a death sentence to find out which of us is carrying because that’s what you’re gonna get on the spot. Go ahead, FAFO.
SIGNED, Loaded American
Everyone should be armed that can be when going anywhere they choose to!!! And I do mean Anywhere!!!
Really, try a SCHOOL, a POLICE DEPARTMENT, a COURTHOUSE, PLEASE O’ PLEASE walk on to ANY property that has these above names and SEE IF THAT GUN MEANS EVVVEEEYYYY WHERE! YOUR THE TOOL BAG that SCREWS US ALL! But PLEASE go ahead and THINK you can carry EVERY place! Or how about walk in and sit at the BAR OR ANY PLACE IJ THAT AREA;) ANYWHERE THIS TOOL BAG SAYS;)
The only TOOL BAG here, that is many tools short, is a FOOL BAG like you!
The Second Amendment does not say anything about you can only carry (bear arms) here, there, or somewhere else!
Please tell me what laws do criminals obey? They are criminals, so any restrictive laws, rules regulations on firearms are only aimed at the lawful law-abiding Citizen!
You’re the idiot sir, I and “We the People” are ALL DISGUSTED with your KIND!
You’re the snot gobbling MO RON that will bow down and scrape to the Communist Progressive Liberal tyrants because you are a Pansy Åss sniveling coward!
I doubt if you even own a gun or even know how to use one properly!
You are probably nothing more than a bought and paid for Communist Progressive Liberal Troll coming in here on a gun forum and spouting asinine stupid garbage!
See, Tommy get’s it, carry on,lol.
I would like to point out that it is perfectly legal to carry a loaded gun in a bar in MN. Secondly, you sound like you have some real anger issues, maybe look into talking to someone.
I’m convinced there are full-time Lefties out there who sit at home, or Antifa HQ, and all they do is troll comment boards to make stupid, nasty comments. I’ve dealt with several of those on various sites. After awhile, you can tell who they are. One character used several different handles to make it look like there were a bunch of reactors. But, the posts were always the same Leftist attacks in the same style. Sick bastards, they are.
The carry laws are a patch work, kindof like “AUTO DELETE POSTS”
I wanna carry in Church but the “AUTO DELETE POSTS” from the creepy Cardinal says no and they will try to make a felon out anyone who “FUCK YOU.”
Anywhere that doesn’t screen and search for weapons should not be a leftist “gun-free-zone”. Your beloved PDs and courthouses have ARMED guards and metal detectors at controlled entrances, in case you haven’t notived.
