Okay, I'm glad someone is fighting back. However, the sec guard fires when there's a mother and infant in the way, he could have easily hit them. He also fires at the guy as he runs out the door, there could have been innocent bystanders just on the other side of that door. I understand we can't see what the sec. guard sees, but I'd venture to say he could ahev used better judgement.

Guy was running away, don't see how he was a threat. That little 2 year old would have told me not to point in that direction. Looks like the clerk just wanted to use his gun.

If the robber pointed a firearm at the clerk. The robber shouldve been dropped like a wet rag from that distance. Probably not a good idea shooting for his back on the way out (read lawsuit), but it appears from the video the robber is shooting back into the store. The stupid music makes it impossibe to hear what happened unless there was no sound recorded at the scene.

Looks like everyone is ok inside, barring being half deaf from the muzzle blast. As for the robber hopefully he was leaking.

I think the shotss where safely out of the range of the mother and child. If the dude had a gun then firing was the right thing to do, anyone can turn around and start firing. That's a fear of life situation, if the dude was unarmed then the guard shouldn't have fired at all. The first shoot high and way right, the second two... How the hell did he miss? Well i guess we don't really know if he missed or not.
