He emerged victorious, much to the surprise of the would-be thief. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Detroit Police, the incident occurred on Young Street around 9:30 a.m. on Monday, when the suspect, who was armed with a firearm, targeted the tow truck driver.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The suspect did not realize that the driver had a CPL (concealed pistol license) and was ready to defend himself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the altercation, the armed robber was shot and later died in the hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/detroit-tow-truck-driver-concealed-carry-license-fends-robber-shoots-kills-man\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"detroit-truck-driver-acts-fast-fatally-shoots-armed-robber\" title=\"Detroit Truck Driver Acts Fast!  Fatally Shoots Armed Robber\"><em>Fox News<\/em><\/a> reported that the tow truck driver had been meeting the suspect to purchase an old car from him when the attempted robbery occurred. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One witness, who wished to remain anonymous, reported hearing &#8220;multiple gunshots, around six to eight.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYou have to get these crooks off the street one way or another,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The suspect reportedly had ties to the area.

Fatally Shoots Armed Robber\"><em>WXYZ News<\/em><\/a> also brought to light a potential issue with insurance companies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some towing company owners have stated that their insurance will not cover the liability that comes with arming drivers.  As a result, these owners tend to issue policies banning drivers from carrying firearms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s unclear if the driver worked for a company with a no-guns policy.  But what is clear &#8212; policy or no policy &#8212; is that his decision to protect himself ensured that he would finish his shift alive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the owner of Action Impact Firearms and Training Centers, Bill Kucyk, stated, &#8220;If you are in an occupation where your life is at risk, I encourage you to take whatever steps you need to protect yourself.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a lesson we can all take to heart in today&#8217;s world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\" style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong><em>*** <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"detroit-truck-driver-acts-fast-fatally-shoots-armed-robber\" title=\"Detroit Truck Driver Acts Fast!
