A Georgia man with a concealed-carry license is being hailed as a hero (http://www.myfoxatlanta.com/story/28717204/smyrna-police-searching-carjacking-suspect) after preventing an attempted carjacking and possibly saving a woman's life.
The harrowing incident was caught on surveillance camera at Fast Track Car Wash in Smyrna, Georgia, on Friday afternoon.
When a teenager tried to steal a woman's car, she jumped on the hood to try and stop him from driving away. Witnesses say that prompted the alleged thief to speed up.

I wonder if the woman was on the hood when he shot - if she was...I dunno man. Seems like a bad shot to attempt

I agree and I also wondered was he shooting at a moving car through glass, makes for a tough shot. Then you have the fact that it is light ( day time ) so was there pedestrians around ? Another negative, but I posted this because he did stop the crime and maybe he did take these things into consideration. ( or at least I hope he did )

One of the local news broadcasts had an ex cop/lawyer talking about it and he said it was a good shoot because of the mortal danger of the lady on the hood of the car. But he injured one of the four bad guys so the odds were in his favor I suppose. I'm guessing he wasn't shooting at the guy driving the car.

Dang his gun doesn't hold more than one shot I guess :laugh: to bad he didn't get all 4.

Seriously that would explain things though, thanks for the update.
