It is a little unclear about the type of pistol used, just the same, the outcome for the BG was not in their favor.

Bay County business owner shoots robbery suspect

ASSOCIATED PRESS AUBURN — Authorities say a Bay County insurance business owner shot one of two masked men armed with air pistols who tried to rob the office.
The sheriff's department told WSGW-AM the shooting happened Wednesday night in Auburn, about 100 miles northwest of Detroit, after an attempted robbery at Evergreen Insurance Agency. Two Standish-area men have been identified as suspects.
Witnesses told WEYI-TV they heard loud bangs and had no idea they were gunshots.

Officials said a 31-year old was shot more than once and was hospitalized in critical condition. A 23-year old was captured several hours later and was treated for possible frostbite, deputies said.

Authorities said they found the suspects' vehicle parked a block away with the engine running.

Beautiful.

If the insurance business owner spent just a little more time at the range, we'd have a couple toe-tags in the morgue instead of a frost-bitten putz and his buddy, swiss-cheese butt. But I bet his business doesn't get robbed again any time soon. "Stupid should hurt" and the BG's catch on after getting their backside perferated.

Still, I applaud his effort.
