Bad decision &#8212; for the robber.  The older gentleman drew his own gun and shot the crook three times, once in leg and once in each arm. <\/p>\n<p>Following the shooting, police and paramedics arrived on scene. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The one guy&#8217;s arm was full of blood,&#8221; said witness Gary Guyette.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They cuffed him and then they surrounded him,&#8221; he said. &#8220;He was moaning and kind of screaming and paramedics pulled up and started working on him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The suspect was brought to a local hospital where he was listed in serious condition.  As for the gun owner, he&#8217;s been receiving praise from the community. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not every day you see a bad guy get shot and get taken down,&#8221; said witness Gary Guyette in an interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fox2detroit.com\/news\/local-news\/23024347-story\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"bank-robber-writhes-in-pain-after-being-shot-3-times-by-elderly-gun-owner\" title=\"Bank Robber Writhes in Pain After Being Shot 3 Times by Elderly Gun Owner\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox2 News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m glad to see that more people are carrying guns,&#8221; added Guyette. &#8220;And the bad guys think twice before they do something bad &#8211; and take care of business.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Stefan Bahry, a firearm instructor at the Action Impact Gun Range, also praised the gun owner.  <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For those people that are anti-gun and anti-us civilians carrying firearms, I say what if that was you inside of that bank,&#8221; Bahry said. &#8220;What if that person turned his gun on everybody inside the bank and just started shooting people for the heck of it. Maybe there is that one person that&#8217;s going to defend your life and that&#8217;s going to defend my life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Though an investigation is ongoing, it appears that the gun owner will not face charges for shooting the bank robber.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;They cuffed him and then they surrounded him,&#8221; said a witness. &#8220;He was moaning and kind of screaming and paramedics pulled up and started working on him.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":34,"featured_media":43874,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_specdata_upc":"","_specdata_placement":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[7,25,262,241,216,240],"tags":[132,291],"featured":[],"hunt365":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-43869","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-gunsamerica-authors","8":"category-current-events","9":"category-defensive-use-of-firearms","10":"category-rapid-fire","11":"category-s-h-blannelberry","12":"category-this-week","13":"tag-buzz","14":"tag-dgu"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Bank Robber Writhes in Pain After Being Shot 3 Times by Elderly Gun Owner<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"&quot;They cuffed him and then they surrounded him,&quot; said a witness. &quot;He was moaning and kind of screaming and paramedics pulled up and started working on him.&quot;\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/bank-robber-writhes-in-pain-after-being-shot-3-times-by-elderly-gun-owner\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Bank Robber Writhes in Pain After Being Shot 3 Times by Elderly Gun Owner\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"&quot;They cuffed him and then they surrounded him,&quot; said a witness. &quot;He was moaning and kind of screaming and paramedics pulled up and started working on him.&quot;\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/bank-robber-writhes-in-pain-after-being-shot-3-times-by-elderly-gun-owner\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Gun Reviews and News | GunsAmerica.com\/Digest\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/gunsamerica\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2015-09-23T13:03:50+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2023-08-19T01:30:45+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/BankRobber.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"400\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"S.H.
