[MSN] A "good Samaritan" with a gun killed an active shooter who may have been gearing up for a deadly rampage at a Texas sports bar Wednesday night, police said.An armed "good Samaritan" - as the Arlington Police labeled him
"I don't think the shooter even knew where the rounds were coming from because he started shooting at the front door," Arlington Police Lieutenant Chris Cook said, who described the scene as "chaotic."
Use of force and firearms expert Emanuel Kapelsohn told NBC News that, from his understanding, the man who took down the shooter reacted appropriately.
"I think it's to be applauded," he said. "Not everybody in the world ought to own a gun. Not everybody in the world ought to carry a gun. Not everyone in the world ought to engage an armed criminal where innocent people could be potentially injured."
"But this good Samaritan obviously had the ability to do what he did," Kapelsohn added. "Who knows how many people would be dead if he had not acted?"
I heard this on the radio yesterday morning, but was surprised to see it make the major media.
