A convenience store clerk in Albuquerque, New Mexico, has been suspended for two weeks after she used a firearm to defend herself during an armed robbery.

A clerk at a convenience store in Virginia will not be prosecuted for shooting and killing a man who had robbed the store at gunpoint, a grand jury decided this week.

“The minute he pulled it out, he cocked it. And I thought, ‘I have to think of something,’” she said.

“I’d never been through this,” Summers said. “Never shot a gun before. All this is new to me.”

A judge in Ohio is in stable condition after being attacked by a gunman outside the Jefferson County Courthouse Monday morning.

“We have noticed inconsistencies in his story and detectives are continuing to investigate,” police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said Monday morning.

A Marietta, Georgia, woman last week shot and killed a man she says came into her house and threatened her and her children with a gun.

“Big knife. Fake gun. Optimus Prime mask. Oh, yeah. I’m ready.”

“When I found out a 17-year-old defended herself I thought, ‘That’s fantastic,'” a representative of the Spokane County Sheriff’s Department said.
