    Virginia ‘Hero’ Customer Shoots Multiple Armed 7-Eleven Robbers (Video)

    https://21stcenturystate.com/2019/0...shoots-multiple-armed-7-eleven-robbers-video/

    Asked if she could describe the shooter, she said: ‘He’s a hero. He’s a hero, that’s what that man is. Thank God he was in here, thank God he was holding a gun, and … he saved our life.’

    "Asked by a reporter to describe the ‘hero’ shooter, Ms Engel responded: ‘He was the best looking man I have ever seen.’"

    Pretty good story to hear about. The two different news edits and choice of words used to describe the incident by Wavy News 10 (NBC affiliate) and and 13 News Now (ABC affiliate) is a good case study on how reporting style can significantly shape public perception of this sort of thing.
    Good take away quote from an interviewed witness:
    ...Thank God he was in here, thank God he was holding a gun, and … he saved our life.’
