Another Self-Defense Shooting By a Civilian



Okay, a retired cop, but still a civilian now. She first tried to hold two robbers for police, but when they nearly ran over one of her employees, she fired a single shot that killed both robbers.

The robbery and shooting happened early Sunday or late Saturday at Adela's place on the city's southwest side.



Police say the 49-year-old woman who owned the restaurant -- a retired Detroit cop who was a former member of Mayor Coleman Young's security team -- tried to hold the suspects in the parking lot until police arrived. But when the two men attempted to speed away, and nearly ran over one of her employees, she fired a single shot that apparently struck both men, according to police.



...



The two men -- Dorian Gordillo, 22, and Rosalio Becera, 33 -- were later found dead from a bullet wound in a car parked on the Interstate 75 service drive, according to police.



One of the men was reportedly still holding a beer in his hand.

Pretty obviously, this wasn't trick shooting, but utter luck that a single shot killed both robbers.
