Ten-Year-Old’s DGU Saves Halloween Candy

Robert Farago - comments No comments

chronicle.augusta.com  reports that a 10-year-old in South Carolina successfully defended his Halloween candy from a vicious, sugar-crazed predator. According to the police, the 28-year-old candy snatcher said she recognized some boys from her neighborhood trick-or-treating. She “jokingly” told the lads she would steal their candy. One 10-year-old responded with an appropriate verbal warning. “No you’re not.” When the woman continued to move towards the youngsters, the 10-year-old drew a 9mm handgun and pointed it at the perp. Fortunately, brandishing defused the attack. “Obviously, we don’t encourage anyone under the age of 18 to carry a concealed weapon,” a police spokesperson commented. “Appropriate charges will be brought. But this incident highlights the need for parents to supervise their children for their own safety and protection. The children’s I mean.” [/sarcasm.]
