Neighbors Are Shocked

Another story of self-defense from the Sunshine State. 1 injured after shooting on Midpoint Bridge | WINK News

It is worth noting that both the police and the news media in Florida understand the difference between victim, and perpetrator.

According to police, two men, who did not know each other, stopped on the side of the road in separate cars. The suspect allegedly attempted to attack the victim. In response, the victim pulled out a gun and shot the suspect in the armpit and forearm.

The guy who got shot was taken to a local hospital, the victim is cooperating with the investigation.

Cape Coral, Florida is in Southwest Florida, about 100 miles south of Tampa, and about 115 miles west of Palm Beach. The Midpoint Memorial Bridge spans the Caloosahatchee River, and connects Cape Coral to Fort Myers.

As for the neighbors...

The unexpected incident occurred near a park frequented by families, raising concerns in the otherwise quiet neighborhood.

David Goss, a resident who visits the park daily to read and eat lunch, expressed his disbelief.

"Why? Why?" said Goss.

You are not protected by your zip code. You are not protected because you live in a nice area. Criminals, and crazy people (I don't know that either applies in this case) can drive to where you live.

Self-defense is a human right. Good Guys 1, Bad Guys 0.
