Oops, Wrong Victim: A robber in Indiana reached through the window of a
truck to grab the driver's necklace. In response to being choked, the
driver put five 9mm rounds into the robber, who did not survive.

A Shooting Dissected: In June 1997 I was privileged to preview the
latest LAPD "Officer Involved Shooting" video involving Officer Stan
Cook of the Honolulu PD. Stan is now retired and has posted a few
accounts, primarily in video, on his own website. This includes amazing
reenactment footage of an officer finishing a gunfight after having been
knocked to the ground by a hit with a bullet from 7.62x39mm rifle.
