  1. Not physically harmed but she has had a gun pointed at her (simulated or not). That is trauma that lasts. I know. I hope she is ok.

  2. No where is “safe” anymore, just use common sense when out and about, of course I would have handled the situation differently.

    Firestone 11R

  3. Thank you for the report. What time of day did this happen? He was running through the parking lot, but did the victim see where he was running to? Did he get into a car?

    Thank you!
