ND: Handgun + 4 Robbers = Violent Crime Stopped Cold
Fargo, North Dakota has not been a hotbed of violent crime. That may have changed with the oil boom that has been going on for the past decade. It appears that a number of transients and homeless people have found their way to the city. Last Monday, at noon, it was just below zero with a 10 mph wind. It was not a good time to be outdoors. To be knocked unconscious and left to lay exposed could have been fatal.
Fortunately for the victim in this crime, a concealed carry permit holder witnessed enough of the assault and robbery to hold the four suspects at gunpoint until the police arrived. From inforum.com:
Lt. Joel Vettel said one of the four knew the victim and lured him behind a building in the 900 block of NP Avenue. There, the man was assaulted, knocked unconscious and robbed of his wallet, Vettel said.Police were dispatched to the scene about 12:10 p.m. and learned that the passer-by, who has a license to carry a concealed weapon, brandished his gun to end the robbery, Vettel said.
All five people participants are now out of the weather. The four suspects are in jail, and the victim is likely in the hospital, at least for observation. Being knocked unconscious often has serious consequences.
In very cold weather, there are difficulties in carrying a handgun openly. Most gun belts and shoulder holsters do not work well over parkas and heavy coats. Moreover, below zero temperatures tend to solidify some lubricants. Many think it best to keep the handgun under the outerwear, and it that case, it will be concealed.
