So the question posed is this. Do you run away and try and find help, by which time surely the person being stabbed would be dead for sure, or...Police said a 59-year-old man who saw Petersen being attacked tried to step and stop it. However, the attacker then pulled out a gun and shot him.
Both men were then taken to the hospital.
Police said Petersen died at the hospital. The good Samaritan was treated and is expected to survive.
The suspect, identified as 59-year-old Rafael Watts, was caught nearby shortly after the incident, police said.
1. Enter hand to hand combat with someone wielding a knife
2. If you are carrying a gun, use it to stop the threat of the attacker up to and including justified homicide
3. Rape Whistle, yell in your biggest big boy voice, fan your arms like a peacock in an attempt to scare the attacker
In a world without guns how could a Good Samaritan handle this situation without, as you can see, basically becoming a victim himself and without running away to leave a fellow citizen to die?
