Delivery Driver remains a dangerous job. DoorDash driver acted in self-defense in Columbia County shooting; wounded man to face charge | WJBF
I had thought that DoorDash would fire this guy, but their policy on being armed recognizes that it is a dangerous job.
A man shot three times outside a busy Washington Road shopping center Thursday is expected to face a charge once he is released from the hospital, while investigators say the DoorDash driver who shot him acted in self-defense.
Columbia County, Georgia, is in the area of Augusta. The county line is about 3 miles northwest of downtown Augusta.
[The guy who got shot] remains in the ICU after suffering three gunshot wounds – one to his left arm, one to his lower abdomen and another to his upper abdomen.
He is expected to survive to face charges, barring any complications like infections.
As for DoorDash, I found this information at The GunZone: Can DoorDash Drivers Carry a Firearm? Navigating the Complexities. This is from 2024, so I don't if anything has changed.
While DoorDash’s policy does not explicitly prohibit all drivers from carrying a firearm, it emphasizes responsible firearm handling and compliance with all applicable laws. DoorDash explicitly states that drivers must adhere to all federal, state, and local laws regarding firearm ownership, possession, and use.
Specifically, drivers are responsible for knowing and following all laws in the areas they are operating.
This policy is better than what Uber or Lyft requires.
Whatever DoorDash, Uber, or Lyft decide, self-defense is a human right. Good Guys 1, Bad Guys 0. (Hat tip to USA Carry)
