Illinois Self-Defense: Man shoots would-be robber in Austin :: 12/01/2019
A 30-year-old man fired shots at and struck a would-be robber Sunday in Austin on the West Side.
About 4:45 p.m., he was exiting a business in the 5200 block of West Chicago Avenue when he was approached by two men, one of whom pulled out a handgun and demanded his property, Chicago police said.
The man, who is a valid concealed carry license holder, pulled out his own handgun and fired shots toward the armed man, police said. The armed man then ran in an unknown direction.
Shortly after the incident, a 39-year-old man showed up at Loretto Hospital with a gunshot wound to the shoulder and thigh, police said.
Police did not say the 39-year-old man’s condition or if anyone was charged.
Area Central detectives are investigating the incident.
