How safe do you feel in your neighborhood?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The intended victim of a late night stick up turned the tables and fatally shot his alleged robber outside an East Atlanta Village bar.
The incident happened about two miles from the scene of last week’s high-profile killing of bartender John Henderson on Memorial Drive.
Henderson’s killing during an armed robbery at Standard Food & Spirits prompted area residents to voice concern about rising crime, according to the AJC.
Have you noticed an increase in crime in your neighborhood?
In the case of the East Atlanta Village bar shooting, was the intended victim justified in in actions? Was his response too risky?
