Armed robber gets bloody surprise from his intended victim
An armed robber was shot and wounded by his intended victim in a confrontation in a downtown Denver parking lot, according to a report.
It happened in the parking facility for the Denver Museum of Nature and Science when two men, with weapons drawn, approached a man who had arrived at the museum with his girlfriend and two children.
According to a report from KDVR television, police responded to the incident on New Year's Eve.
The intended victim told officers his group arrived at the museum, and he noticed two Hispanic men walking toward them with handguns drawn, the report said.
The station said police reports offered the description of the two as Hispanic men about 18 to 24 with thin builds and just under six feet tall.
"The man told officers he was in fear for his, his girlfriend and his children’s lives," the station said.
The suspects grabbed at their target and demanded a silver chain he was wearing around his neck, then one allegedly struck the victim in the back of the head, the report said.
So the intended victim explained he grabbed his concealed carry handgun from his waistband, and when the suspects "began firing their guns" and hitting his car where the children were sitting, he returned fire.
The thugs then fled, and a short time later, an officer at Presbyterian St. Luke’s alerted them to a man with a gunshot wound who was seeking treatment.
A review of security tape showed the man had been dropped off by someone in a vehicle matching the one that fled the museum parking lot.
"The suspect who was shot was transported to Denver Health where he was taken into custody. He has been identified as 21-year-old Oscar Alejandro Mendoza. However, the second man fled from the hospital before being contacted by police," KDVR reported.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: America – long the freest, most prosperous, powerful, altruistic and Christian nation on earth – is on the brink of destruction. Every decent and aware American adult knows this. The evidence is everywhere.
Democrat politicians today overwhelmingly favor late-term abortion up to the very moment of birth – formerly known as "infanticide." They encourage children too young to drive or vote to have their breasts and/or sex organs amputated in pursuit of a "gender transition" that is both delusional and impossible, and which leads to staggering rates of depression and suicide. They have not just allowed, but ENGINEERED, a full-scale foreign invasion of America across her southern border.
Their standard bearer, President Joe Biden – a senile, pathologically dishonest and epically corrupt career political hack – is destroying America's economy, energy sector, military, law enforcement, election integrity, national security, Constitution and overall national wellbeing as rapidly as possible. At the same time, Team Biden demonizes and, increasingly, IMPRISONS critics as "violent extremists," "domestic terrorists," "white supremacists" and "insurrectionists." Indeed, they're currently engaged in an obviously corrupt multi-front legal war against Biden's chief political rival, Donald J. Trump, in an attempt to send the 45th president of the United States to prison for the rest of his life.
None of this constitutes "politics" in any conventional or traditional American sense. Rather, it is all darkly spiritual. The greatest nation on earth is in the throes of a full-blown spiritual war between good and evil.
The big question, then, is WHAT CAN BE DONE TO SAVE AMERICA?
